Re: New harddrive has no letter
I found my problem. While I was installing Windows Vista, I received the
message "Windows will copy startup files to the d: drive" or something like
that. Anyway, I didnt want my D: drive to have anything to do with the
operating system so I stopped the install and removed my D: drive and
restarted the install. After the install was complete, I put my D: drive
back in but it didnt register as a drive although it showed up in disk
manager as a healthy drive with no partition. I thought it was that I had
it formatted as FAT32 but it was always NTFS, the partition just got
damaged, probably when Windows Vista tried to change it without first
getting my permission.

I used the program "Partition Table Doctor 3.5" and it restored the
damaged partition and I suddenly had all my Data back, excellent.
