We have one Compaq ML 310 Server with 2 SCSI hard disks running on windows
2000 server with SP4.2 hard diskwith 18.2 GB each.One Disk is partitioned as
follows C:as 6 GB and E: as 11 GB.The second disk is fully partioned as
F:having 17.2 GB.When the Boot Hard disk (Compaq)got failed we installed a
new hardisk (IBM)of same type and restored the whole data including winnt
Folder and registry from a backup tape. after a successfull restoration the
OS and Softwares are working fine.But when we check the Disk management
console the Boot disk i.e) partitions with C: and E: are not showing. Only F:
drive and CD rom is showing in this console.what could be the reason ? is
there any registry modification that i should do to restore my configurations?

Start a Command Prompt and type these commands:

set > c:\test.txt
mountvol >> c:\test.txt
notepad c:\test.txt

Now paste this information into your reply.

In your initial post you said that drive C: and E: are not showing.
The data you now post does not support your claim. Two things
are obvious:
- Windows says that the %SystemDrive% is C: and that the
%SystemRoot is C:\WinNT. I cannot imagine that Windows
would boot up successfully against an unmounted drive.
- Mountvol.exe reports that drives C: and E: are both mounted,
again contradicting your first post.
- Drive F: is not mounted.

In other words, the report you post now says exactly the
opposite of your first post.

There is one unmounted volume. You would normally assign a
drive letter from within the Disk Manager but you can also
mount it with this command:

mountvol F: \\?\Volume{c494ff28-3808-11da-9087-806d6172696f}\

******************************************************
we have done the "Mountvol>> c:\test.txt" without connecting the F: Drive
That is why F: drive is not showing in the test.txt.
But my question is something different.
when we take the disk managemnt console it doesnot shows any C: and E: Drive.
Only CDrom (D and f: Drive are shown in the diskmanagement consol!!!
Under Logical drives it is showing A:,C:,D:,E: AND F: !!!
OS and softwares are working Fine!
One more thing....... both disks are basic and not dynamic

I am unable to reconcile the discrepancies you report
between the output from mountvol.exe and what you
claim you see under the Disk Manager. To me they
appear totally contradictory.
