I'm using WinXP and I tried to merge 2 partitions using partition magic 8.
When it was almost over I got and error 1520. Now I can only see one
partition in Explorer. When I go into Disk Management the other shows up as
free space. The first partiotion was empty, but the second had all the
files that I need on it. I ran FindPart but I don;t know what to do with
the information I was given. Can someone please tell me what to do next.
Thanks.

Since the listing for the 59898 MB NTFS partition is marked "BU" for
backup boot sector, the partition is not internally OK at the previous
location. The recovery work probably has to be done by copying files
to another disk, or eventually the first partition on the disk.

Since it may not be a straightforward case, mail me.

In some cases usual file copying recovery programs will work in a
situation like this.
