Ok here goes the problem, I have a computer with XP Pro on it 2 drives are
SATA 250 gig formatted NFTS and they are the boot drives, I also have a 160 gig IDE Maxtor 6Y160PO, that was FAT32 format and a Fujitsu MPB3064ATU 6.1 gig FAT32 drive. The 160 gig drive had 6 years of backups on it (it's a new drive) from my old systems. I was redoing a old system and I removed the 6.1 gig
Fujitsu drive to work on the older system and had changed the jumper to
master. The drive was a bootable 98 drive for the old system. When I reinstalled this drive in my new system I forget switch back the jumper to slave. This drive is on my secondary IDE drives, the SATA drives are my primary boot. I realized my mistake, I shut down the system normally and then changing the jumper to slave. When I rebooted a blue screen came up and Windows file check was running, I couldn't stop it. Now the 160 gig Maxtor is reporting back that it is a 6.1 gig fat32 drive. I have one folder in it named FOUND.000 and files that are named FILE0000.chk to File9999.chk. I called Microsoft and they gave me the canned response you must of shut down your computer wrong.
I work with computer systems all the time, so I'm not a dummy, but
not a programmer. Any ideas how to reverse the process that check disk did,
or recover data on this drive? Any help is appreciated. I downloaded Stellar Phoenix data recovery software to one of my SATA drives and I can see the files are still there, but can't see them with explorer. By the way the BIOS reports the drive is a 160 gig drive.
