Hi, my main problem is that the partition with data is now shown as unallocated and I need to recover the data that was in the drive. I will tell you exactly what happened.
First I have a 500 Seagate hdd that was main used as external hdd. Then I create two new partition on window 7, so it has 3 (partitions A, B, C) where A has all my data while the other two were empty. Then I moved the hdd to my new build and try to install window xp on it, but xp only recognize C so I continue install on C. However, after installation, A and B become one unallocated space.
First I thought the problem was my motherboard driver so I installed the driver. Nothing happened. Then I try to reinstall window 7 but I accidentally click delete on C. So now all three partition is shown as one big unallocated space. At that moment I stop doing anything that might erase my data on A. I know this might be confusing but if anyone know the steps I should take, I will greatly appreciated.
