Hi there,

I have one drive, three partitions C,D and E.

C is wondows, D is programs and E is my data.

I shrank D and then increased the size of E with partition magic pro,
and all was going fine. D resized in seconds, then it went to resize
E and said "moving data" so i left it for a while, checked on it, was
at 20%, came back an hour later, still at 20%. Waited another hour,
still at 20% and the pattern of the drive noise stayed teh same like
it had hung.

I prob shouldnt have done but i restarted my machine, all was ok,
partitions resized but i couldnt get into e. after some time i fixed
this with chkdsk e: /f and all my files are back, but some are
corrupted, probably to do with me restarting during them being moved
down the partition.

Is there any tool in PM or a chkdsk command i can use to "un corrupt"
them, or is there something within the NTFS file system i am using on
all the partitions that will "look after itself"?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers


Karl

You can download Findpart at

http://www.partitionsupport.com/utilities.htm

do:

findpart all fp.txt

and mail me the file fp.txt.

Do of course not access the problem partition.

I am a little tired cleaning up after repair attempts, so I may take
my time. It will be needed to hide the partition during the work, and
it is not certain that I can help you recover the files.
