Damaged NTFS partition

[jaydee]

I accidentally resized my partition, and now Windows 2000 won't boot up (it gets partially through and then a blue screen with error INACCESSIBLE BOOT DEVICE comes up). I've tried fdisk /mbr, so no avail, so I assume the MBR is ok. Any ideas as to how I repair my partition (before I reformat my hard drive)?

With what did you resize you partition?

Have you tried running chkdsk?

 

[jaydee]

It was something I found on cnet, I believe it was called Ranish, but I'm not certain. I have not used chkdsk, what will that do?

Ranish Partition Manager?

chkdsk will check the disk for consistency. You can access it through the emergency repair console.

if you have access to a copy of Partition Magic 7.0 somewhere, use that to fix the problem.
