Can't repair NTFS Boot Sector
Posted: 25 Jun 2015, 07:55
Hi!
This is my first attempt to repair a HDD: I've done succesfully (?) some steps, but now I do not know what to do now.
Instructions suggest to "Select the partition you want to modify and choose Boot"
But I do not find any "Boot" option
I'm using TestDisk 7.0
and this is what I see:
Disk \\.\PhisicalDrive2 - 2000 GB / 1863 GiB - CHS 243202 255 63
Partitition.....
>D HPFS - NTFS 0 32 33 243201 45 44 3907024896

Structure: Ok. Use Up/Down Arrow keys to select partitition.
Use Left/Right Arrow keys to CHANGE partitition chartacteristics:
*=Primary bootable P=Primary L=Logical E=Extended D=Deleted
Keys A: add partitition, L: load backup, T: change type, P: list files,
Enter: to continue
NFTS, blocksize=4096, 2000 GB / 1863 GiB
I'm interested only in first partitition (HPFS - NTFS) where I changed Characteristic from "D"eleted to "L"ogical...
but.. what next?
Thanks a lot for reading and for support.
