stevedecho Posted November 23, 2004 Report Share Posted November 23, 2004 HELP!! :o Before doing a clean install of XP Home on a Win ME system, I backed up hundreds of files on 1.7 GB Sec Master and 5 GB Sec Slave Maxtor drives. The XP install reformatted and loaded nicely onto the 60 GB C drive, Pri Master. Now, XP sees all the files on the 5 GB (E drive) but says that the 1.7 GB (D drive) is unformatted, asking "do you want to format now?" No, I don't want to reformat and loose all the data that's suposed to be there. (The drive was full and readable before axeing ME and installing XP on the C drive.) Is there any way to coax XP into reading this disk, or some other recovery method?Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
