I went to do something with partition magic (it recognized something with the pointers I believe, so I allowed it to automatically fix the error) and now I'm not even able to access Partition Disk #0, Partition #1 which is a drive that I used to store data (No OS). It doesn't appear in 'My Computer', but does appear in Disk Management but it doesn't seem like I can do anything with it besides delete the partition. There's a lot of data that I have stored and I don't want to lose it all.I used a partition tool to find out what sectors each of the partitions are starting at and for one of them it's sector 15 and the other it is sector 33. I'm not sure if that has any significance to my problem, but just thought I'd let it be known.- Program: Disk Managemet

Hello trichard13,
Thank you for visiting the Microsoft Answers Community.
Try using diskpart to assign a drive letter to Disk #0, Partition #1.· Click Start Orb > type diskpart
· Right-click diskpart in results above > click Run as administrator
· Once diskpart loads type list volume, press enter
You should notice that you will see your partition that you use for your data, it should not show a drive letter assigned to it.
· Type select volume 6 (replace 6 with the volume number assigned to the partition in question)
· Type assign letter Z (replace Z with the letter that you want to assign to it)
When you look in Computer, you should be able to see your partition.
Hope this helps

- this is exactly what happened to me. i used partition magic and allowed it to do some processes that i don't know what it was. and now i lost the largest partition on my disk and i am not able to do anything with it even when using recovery software like 'active partition'. but i use another OS like ubonto which boots from live DVD i have access to the files on that partition.
i don't know what to do. so if you find solution for your problem, please let me know.

- Thank you Chris,
I have the same problem. Trying Diskpart does not show the volumes on the inaccessible partitions. Any other suggestions?
