Unallocated Drive

Help ! I have got 2 drives, C & E, and everything was working fine till one morning I got a blue screen on start up, memory dumping etc etc. Turned out to be a corrupt memory card (I got 2 of them). Card was replaced but sadly lost all data on my C drive in the process ! Unfortunately, my E drive (still containing 60GB of data !) is now no longer accessible but it does show up in device manager with no problems. Under drive manager it shows up as unallocated. So far, all the advise given meant to reformat the disk and subsequently I will loose all the data of my E drive as well !! Isn't there another way without having to loose all the data ? Also, I've got a little programme monitoring the temp of the 2 drives and the E drive does show up on the result screen, so it's there, got power etc etc

Note that you have already lost all of the data, you're trying to get it back. Any data recovery application will have a similar warning, but you're going to have to trust one of them.

The OnTrack EasyRecovery is the best option. I will say that PC Inspector is a fully working version, there is no "demo", it's freeware.

I've used it several times, and it certainly was able to recover files for me.
