Hi every one,
I have a problem with Win XP, and don't know whether you can help me or not?
I first install win 2000 on the 1st partition of my hard disk(NTFS)(drive letter C).
I created another 2 NTFS partitions for data store(drive letter D and E),
and the remaining as unallocated partition.
Then I started booting from CD and installed win XP,
I install Win XP in the remaining unallocated partition (choosed to format as NTFS)
left other partitions untouched.
But after complete installation of Win XP, the partition with win 200 installation
and 2 data partitions all became one unallocated partition. This means there is only 2
partitions available after win XP installation: 1 NTFS with win XP installation (drive letter C)
and other as an unallocated partition. I was so uncareful that didnot backup data before
win XP installation. How can I restore data in the now unallocated partition.
Thank you for reading this posting and any help would be very appriciated.
