Ok, so I was checking out the settings for my raid I/O card that my 250GB ATA/133 drive is connected to. I accidently pushed something and now my 250GB shows up as a 40GB drive and I can't access it. When I click on it windows offers to format it!! Ahh!! This is very emotional for me because I have thousands of photos of my family on that drive and other things that can't be replaced. I have GetDataBack for NTFS but sinse windows only thinks its a 40GB I cant scan the whole drive... Please help me save this drive!

I found a way to save everything! All I had to do was connect the hard drive and controller card to another computer. The drive showed up just as it should. I am going to re-format my other computer and wait until afted windows is installed to connect the 250GB back up.
