I have the following problem: a wrong ghost image was put on a laptop harddisk, causing partitions with not-backupped files to be lost...
So I let TestDisk do a deep search, and it found the two partitions.
When I put one of the partitions to "L" (logical), and then write, it seems like the partition is back. However, I can only see this partition from within Ghost (file browse), not from for instance Volkov Commander or Mini Windows XP/7. How can I make this partition really visible?
Secondly, when I did a second deep search, selecting both lost partitions, I got an error message and went immediately back to the main menu (after 3 hours of deep searching...). I did it again, and then saw that the previously "L" partition was now back as "D" (deleted). How can that be?
Thanks for your help!

Re: TestDisks problems on Windows 7
Would it be possible that you have to add a drive letter using your disk managemant console?
Did you check Ownership?
Otherwise;
Might be possible that your boot sector or file system is damaged.
You shouldn't change anything to a damaged file ystem, because it can increase damage.
You can diagnose your boot sector.
Infos like you can test it;
