I had a problem earlier when I moved my hard drive from
one computer to another, I started getting a NTLDR Missing
error. I was able to retrieve the C drive by installing
another hard drive and using the dskprobe to convert the
drive back to Fat32 (Somehow it forgot what its file
system was.)

I have the drive partitioned into 4 drives, the last
drive, which was partitioned to a 5GB drive seems to be
lost also. I have been unable to restore it's file system
back to Fat32, its currently still Raw. The drive has
been partitioned and is being picked up by Win2000 but is
not accessible. The drive partition space hasn't changed,
nor have I formated it, and I am wondering if there is a
way to get the files back off that drive.

Try booting up with a 'Knoppix' cd and accessing the drive
so you can at least copy the files off via ftp or a
netbios share.
