Reinstall- Wiped Out Slave

I have a program causing nasty ntdll.dll error messages. So I was told to reinstall xp over the previous copy. I did and lost my wireless card and slave 250G hard drive. I got the wireless card back. But the hard drive shows up in the bios and when i go into Storage management it shows up as unallocated. What happened? I was only installing software on my main C drive. D drive should have been untouched.
 
Go into Control Panel > Performance and Maintenance >Administrative Tools, then go into Computer Management. Then, go to Storage, and finally into Disk Management. If the drive shows up, but not in My Computer, then there isn't a partition on the drive (which sounds like the problem. Next, right-click on the drive and select Format. Then, format it as a Primary NTFS partition. And remember, formatting will destroy all the data on the drive, but you probably already knew that.

Hope this helps. 🙂
 
I'm checking into some recory programs right now. One was $100 per gig (yeah right) and another was $30 but didn't work. I finally found one for $80 that is just right. Anyone know of a better recovery program for copying files off this bad directory HD. Cheaper I mean.
