As far as the system is concerned, there is nothing on G - it is 100% free. But you can try chkdsk /r. Maybe it can fix it. Some people also were successful with this program : Rescue Kit Free Edition | PARAGON Software Group - free partition software, hard disk partitioning
Next time make frequent backups of your stuff. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP, Dell, Gateway, Toshiba - 4 laptops and 2 desktops OS Vista, Windows7, Mint Mate, Zorin, Windows 8 CPU from 1.6GHz Duo to i7 Monitor(s) Displays 2x HP w2207 Keyboard with trackball - no mices Mouse Trackball mice Hard Drives 5x HDD, 7x SSD, 12x Externals Internet Speed DSL 6000 |

I do make frequent backups...and this is where they go.
I tried a few things, but on the end I've just wiped and formated it. Think I'll be looking for a new one tomorrow. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Lenovo Ideapad Z570 OS Windows 7 Home Premium 64 CPU Intel Core i3-2350M CPU @ 2.30GHz Sandy Bridge Motherboard LENOVO Emerald Lake Memory 8.00 GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 665MHz Graphics Card 1024MB GeForce GT 520M Sound Card Realtek High Definition Audio Intel(R) Display Audio Monitor(s) Displays 15.6 Screen Resolution 1366x768 Mouse hp Hard Drives 500GB Seagate 2.5" SATA @5400 & a 600GB Lacie external HDD Internet Speed Never fast enough |

So that was your backup disk. Well, if your originals are still in good order, that is easy to reestablish. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP, Dell, Gateway, Toshiba - 4 laptops and 2 desktops OS Vista, Windows7, Mint Mate, Zorin, Windows 8 CPU from 1.6GHz Duo to i7 Monitor(s) Displays 2x HP w2207 Keyboard with trackball - no mices Mouse Trackball mice Hard Drives 5x HDD, 7x SSD, 12x Externals Internet Speed DSL 6000 Data error (cycle redundancy check) problems?
