    Default Windows drive failz.

    Hello,

    So basically, I want to be able to access the missing partitions (they show up in Disk Management but not My Computer) without loosing the data.

    Yes I am asking for help for once.

    Something wierd happened.

    I wanted to format and resize a partition using the Vista Disk Management Console but it was all like "I IZ NOT READY FOR DIS OP. Refresh me k?" so I pressed F5, which refreshed it, and then BAM!

    Skype shutdown because "needed files were missing", explorer.exe dissappeared and I got some error saying it couldn't load task manager.

    So I rebooted (forced via the reset button) and then it got stuck on the green loading bar. So I pop the Vista disk in, repair the install and now its all well and good.

    But now, my drives are messed up... :S

    Disk 0 (300GB IDE) has 4 partitions on.

    WDC 2 (Can be seen)
    Downloads 2 (Disappeared :S)
    Music 2 (Can be seen)
    Videos 2 (Disappeared :S)

    Disk 1 (250GB IDE)
    Animé and Movies (Can be seen)
    My OS X Hackintosh Partition (I deleted then remade, I think this is where my problems started, Cannot be seen)

    Then I have Disk 2 (250GB SATA) with my Vista install on, which is fine, and my Disk 3 (500GB SATA), which again is fine.

    By "can be seen" I mean, can be seen in My Computer.

    When I click Format on an unseen drive I get:
    "An unexpected error has occured. Check the system event log for more information on the error. Close the Disk Management console, then restard disk management or restart the computer."

    When I click Properties on one of the unseen drives I get:
    "The operation has failed to complete because the Disk Management console view is not up-to-date. Refresh the view ny using the refresh task. If the problem persists close the Disk Management console, then restart Disk Management or restart the computer."



    HELP!!!!

    God I can't wait to get my Mac.

    Tom
