The first one.
The first one.
I thought so just wanted to make sure. I have attached a picture.
What do I click on to get the other things you need?
Highlight the disk number then from Disk menu run partition Recovery Wizard. How to activate Partition Recovery Wizard of partition magic? Partition Wizard Partition Recovery Wizard Video Help.
If no luck test the HD with Surface test: Video help on how to perform partition surface test with Partition Wizard.
How long does it normally take to run because I've left it running all night and it's not finished
If you ran the full scan then it can take a long time. Is it showing any progress?
If you stop it run the HD Surface scan to check condition of the drive. If it fails there are bootable drive diagnostics for your brand drive in the the Triubleshooting tutorials under picture below.
Did you do anything that might have I formatted the partition. This is very rare.
I ran the full scan then cancelled it and started running the quick scan after an hour because it was still on 0%. It is showing some progress but not a lot. I haven't done anything but the computer shop I took it to might have when they reset the laptop to factory settings as I bought it used.
Hi, I cancelled the quick scan because after 2 days it was only on 3% completed. I tried running the surface scan but it just closes the screen goes blue with a black arrow and then then laptop restarts. I'll look at the tutorials now if I can find them.
Test the hard drive from the Troubleshooting steps under the picture below - how could that be hard to find?
If it fails then replace the Drive and follow the Clean Reinstall tutorial in same place.
Sorry I meant I hadn't looked for it yet and I was going to look now
