Have you been able to list your files?
Did you run Deeper Search also?
Deeper Search looks for partitions using the backup of the boot sector too.
Your disk is an Intel-MBR disk supporting disk size up to 2.2 TB but should be GPT.
On your context menu, you can watch it with convert to GPT.
Scanning a GPT-disk takes some time because it scans each sector.
Have you had a GPT disk before?
Fiona
Would this be the next course of action? I've already ran the Quick and Deep search but didn't turn up anything. Fiona mentions to convert it to GPT. Is this the correct screen and if so, is it the option labeled
ee EFI GPT that I should be selecting?
Krypt, I presume you are waiting for Fiona or Chris's response, but in the meantime, just perhaps we can help each other out? I ask because I am interested in knowing what OS you are running. Whatever it is, I feel it is much higher than mine, but know mine - XP Home - can not do GPT. For that reason, I must use Acronis.
Maybe it's because I don't understand how to do it and it didn't take or it took, but I tried 07 which had Acronis in the line and it did not work for me at all. I couldn't even access the files I could earlier. Again, I either did it wrong, or didn't do it at all, but I think that is my version of your question I might need to ask.
I tell you one thing: I wish this were like a video game where you could save the spot you're at right before you make a choice because boy...with a 3 GB drive, you make the wrong choice, it seems it can take my machine at least close to six hours to get back to where I was. And does that ever eat into ones day...
