I have a maxtor 120gb IDE drive, I had it broken up into three partitions, C: D: E:
C: 20gb
D: 90ish gb
E: 3 gb
I wanted to merge them all together using PM, move some data around, than make some new partitions.
Unfortunately I got an error message during the process "Error 1520: External attribute header mismatch (EA3905F0)"
After the reboot "drivemapper" popped up and was supposed to move all the data from D: to a C: folder that I specified, unfortunately it didn't work, and the folder is empty and there is no D: drive recognized by windows.
I'm using PM verision 8.01 from 3/03
PM reports:
Local Disk C: - NTFS 20002 size 18154mb used 1848 unused primary
(*)extended - 97237 size 0 used 97237 unused primary
(*)unallocated 97237 size 0 used 0 unused logical
The extended has options to delete or resize/move parition
The unallocated has options to create or "undelete" partition, but when i choose undelete it says the only parition available to undelete is a NTFS partition that's only 2195 mb listed as logical. I'm thinking that's the E: partition.
I had getdataback for NTFS around because I had a IBM deskstar take a big crap a few years back, so i used that and as soon as I start it up, it can see the D: partition and says "MISSING SIGNATURE IN PARTITION TABLE etc..." and reports D: as a DOS extended LBA.
Getdataback is able to recover almost all the data, but it's 99% unuseable. I have a strong feeling the data is still there anyone have any ideas?
I also tried ONtrack Easyrecovery, but it didn't do much to help.
PM website tells me to use CHKDSK /F on the partition, however I don't see how that could help, or get my data back.
