Hello, I would appreciate help on this delicate subject...
I wanted to split one partition of 19 Giga (10used) to 2 partitions
of 12 and 7 - all partition are FAT32.
I had one partition: C:\ FAT32 with 19Giga with about 9Giga free.
I wanted to spilt the partitions to 2 partitions.
I have done this with Partition Magic 6:
resized the c: to 12Giga
made an exetended partition to the remaining space (7Giga) to FAT32
After I pressed apply changes - the PM told me
that the changes will take place after i reboot my pc.
I booted my pc and I saw processes proceeded in DOS mode.
The processes were 3: resizing partition and, verifying, and making the new one
(im not sure it was the exact words)
After about an hour the procedure finished succesfully.
AND... after that windows me couldn't go up.
I booted my pc with 98 boot disk / Partition Magic boot disk to DOS.
I saw that C: contained some weired folders / files like these:
name: 3 weired characters size: 964,144 date 12:00 am.
it had 77 files like that (as the dir command notified in the end)
it said there is 687.25 MB free.
Is there any way to recover.
I can get Partitin Magic going up from dos but i have no option to undo operation
like in the windows Partition Magic.
I had put it as a secondary disk in Windows xp and the partition was identified as a raw partition and it couldn't read anything from there...
Please let me know what I can do to recover the data.
Sefi.
