Hello,
I recently dismantled my PC down to the bare case to do a HSF upgrade (SLK947U), and to add another exahust fan and intake/HD fan (6 Fans total).
I re-installed the components as they were previously, and one of my Maxtor 160Gig ATA133's is coming up as "The disk is either in an unrecognizable file format, or the filesystem is corrupted or missing".
I don't know if I zapped it with static, or if it somehow got close to a magnet or what? Don't know What The Deal IS!!!
I had the drive previously labeled as "160Gig 2", but now it lists as "Local Drive G:".
In the Disk Management, the drive shows a "Healthy" status (odd), but I can not do scandisk or de-frag (De-Frag doesn't even see the drive). It will let me get to the Scandisk page, and I click "OK" and it doesn't do anything. Even with the "Fix Filesystem erors automatically" checked, nothing.
How can I try to repair the filesystem on this storage HD that I can not get into w/Windows XP? I tried searching for "NTFS Corruption" but only had replies for an OS drive and "Recovery Console" which I DON'T need (My OS drive is fine, as are the other 3 storage HD's).
I could likely get around it if it was FAT32, but I am at a loss with NTFS and limited DOS/Boot Disk compatibilty. Is NTFSDOS what I need, or what? I'm lost!
I do have a B/U of the important WAVE multitrack files, but the mixes I made in Nuendo are NOT saved, and it will take 2-3 Days to re-mix this project! Help!
Thanks for any help OC Forums ROCKS THE CASBAH!
