I added a new D hard drive yesterday and reinstalled windows xp sp2.
Now the partition seem to be messed up on my F drive. It has 300 gigs
of data on it. Bios recognizes it but windows explorer doesn't show it.
I started norton disk doctor and it's looking for partitions, but it is
gonna take a month. disk management in explorer says that the drive is
there but unallocated. I had it set as a ntfs drive.

does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? or do it faster than a
month?

thanks
