I have two hard disks-500GB and 80GB,so installed win 7 on 500GB HDD and 80GB was kept as slave.And i locked a drive present in 80GB using Bitlocker.Since week when i use win 7 ,after 20 min the display screen turned to black screen.So installed XP on 80GB drive.Now when i try to open the drive which i locked using Bitlocker is asking for format😱,that drive has important information.How can i retrieve the data from that drive🙁
 
You're going to have to decrypt the drive through Win7. It sounds like you didn't destroy your Win7 installation (but this is hard to tell from your post), so this should be doable.

Otherwise if you did trash your Win7 installation and did not make a backup of the keys, then the data is lost for good.
