No, probably not. Check the connections to the drive and try the tut again. this time when after you do the list disk and it says disk # is the selected disk, type list partition and press enter. If it lists partitions, type select partition 1 and press enter, then try assign. if that works you need to do it for each partition it lists. This may not work, but it is worth a try.
Will trying in Safe Mode be of any benefit?
This may be a permissions issue. I've had this problem myself, and right clicking the drive in My Computer, clicking properties, going to the Security tab, clicking Edit, and adding Users to Group or user names: fixed it for me.
Edit: Group or user names: Administrators, SYSTEM, and Users should be listed for the drive to work.
Edit 2: Fixed procedure to include clicking properties after right clicking the drive.

If what I said above doesn't work, look at Free Format Recovery Software | Recover files after format free | iCare Format Recovery Free I have the paid version of this software and was able to recover files from a RAW drive before.
