Here is what happened.

I was formatting a jump drive and in the process I clicked cancel. It said the formatting process couldn't be canceled so I clicked okay. Then the formatting stopped and I was unable to save an image from the web to my C:\ disk so I restarted my computer. My C:\ disk is fine...my jump drive is fine and unformatted. Yet one of my storage disks, disk G:\, says it now needs to be formatted before use...before this entire process it had 240GB worth of data stored on it.

Is there any way I can fix this problem? I tried using a hard disk undeleter but that did not work because it said the disk was not yet formatted...please help!
