Lost NTFS disc - win2000

[Leonardo]

Hi to everybody,

I have a big problem with a secondary disc after an upgrade I have
rebooted the system and I don't see my secondary hard drive. All I get
is the following error in event manager:
INTERNAL Error - The disk group contains no valid configuration copies

I have try to reactivate it but I obtain an error. If I look into my
bios I see the hard drive.

I have seen over Internet and I've tried to use the findpart utility.
That's the result:
findpart all
findpart versione 4.42

Os: DOS 8.00 All
Disk: 1 Cylinders 9964 Heads: 255 Sectors: 63 MB: 78160

No FATS found

Partitions according to partition tables on first harddisks:

How can I recovery this drive?

Thanks in advance for any help and I'm so sorry for my bad english,

You can attempt to copy files using data recovery programs. For the
first NTFS partition on this disk, the Findpart command to attempt to
copy the files would be (assuming there is free space available for
the files):

findpart findntfs 2 0 1 1 copy

The files will be copied to current directory.

The Findpart search did not finish, so more partitions may be located
if you do not interrupt the search.

Since you ran Findpart in DOS, it cannot be seen from the output if
the Windows 2000 128 GB problem is present.
