I recently purchased a Maxtor 250GB Harddrive. I installed it and partition
it into H: (Primary Partition) I: and J: (Logical Drives in the Extended
Partition), all in NTFS. It worked fine for a couple days and I was
comfortable enough to move some files onto this new harddrive.

But today, when I want to access some files on the new HD, I found that my
extended partition are lost. Went to Disk Management in Computer Management
and it showed only the primary partition (H:) and the extended partition has
become Free Space. That means my I: and J: are lost?

I'm not sure if it's related, but my system (WinXP SP1) crashed last night
but I didn't pay much attention after the reboot. Only today I found out
that my partitions are lost. How can I recover the data in there? Someone
please help me!
 
use partition recovery tools like easy partition recovery pro or like.
