Hey I got a little problem here, I had a 400gb HD and it was acting up after my PSU conked out. I replaced the PSU and I got an "Unmountable Boot Error", which I troubleshooted and fixed. During all of this, though, I fixbooted the 400gb drive in attempt to fix, but I think I messed it up more somehow - either that or it was alrdy messed up. I say this, because after I got a new drive and totally fixed everything, something was still wrong with the 400gb HD. I found out that in Administrative Tools>Computer Management it shows the 400 as a 15mb/372gb partition, with the larger of the two as unallocated. Whenever I try to search the drive, it won't let me get in there.
Basically, for anyone who thinks the paragraph is too long up there, I have a HD that has an unallocated partition in it for one reason or another, and I wanna know if anyone can help me recover anything on the drive that I can't select right now. I had a lot of info im hoping that I can get back. Any info is appreciated.
PS - I understand there are programs you can buy that may be able to help in this situation, but im looking for a charge-free type of solution for this, if there even is one that you guys might know. If not, a cheap suggestion of one of those programs would be cool too.
Thanks
