Is that an external hard drive? Or is it a partition of the internal drive?

Here are some troubleshot advices:

Aditionally, open a command window (start-run-cmd) and type this:

C:\>cd D:\

than

C:\>d:

If you did connect to the hardware type ls or dir in order to see if the OS recognizes your files:

D:\>dir

Can you post a picture of the disk management console? You can run it from

diskmgmt.msc

Hi Ancient Dragon,

It is a partition of internal drive.

Thanks in Advance.

Hi Reverend Jim,

It seems like the data in D drive is lost from the diskmgmt snapshot.!!

Please let me know.

One more post for your reference..

That doesn't look good. My only suggestion at this point is to make a complete image of your disk (in case the next step screws everything up), then download and burn a gparted CD. Boot off that and see if you can use the partition table editor to manually put in values for the D partition. This might get you access to D in order to copy the files off (that is if the data has not been overwritten). Have a look at this before doing anything.
