    Partitions gone to unallocated space while formatting "C"


    Hello there,
    I was trying to format windows due to some registrry errors. while formatting c drive power went down system restarted.when i tried installing back there were no partitions available.

    I was just formatting c drive, not the whole HDD.

    HDD id WD 1tb sata drive.
    when i installed OS on second and connected this WD 1tb as secondary drive, the whole data is showing unallocated. I had 7 partitions on this drive and I want those back.

    Any reply will be much appreciated.

    Hey rusty7,


    It's very sad to hear about you HDD. It seems that your partitions were lost after the electricity stopped while you were for mating your Drive. Actually can you see it in Disk Management, if you can you could try to assign a letter, but this could cause some data lost.
    And actually do you have an important info there?

    If you have any questions, feel free to ask.


    Hope this helps,

    If you can get access to a working PC, try downloading and burning a CD from the Minitool Partition Wizard Boot CD. When you then boot your PC from it, see if Recover Partitions works for you.
