MUST Recover "ALL" Data on Disk2



DISK 2 PARTITION TABLE

__________________________________________________________________________

|__partition1______:_________partition2_____________:________partition3_____
________|

Just a moment ago I was using PartionMagic 8.0 to remove "partition3" from
disk2. After rebooting as requested by PM8 inorder for the changes to take
affect I recieved an error 3012 (found nothing relating to this error or any
similar one at www.powerquest.com). Upon recieving the error i was asked to
press any key and was then taken to the desktop to find the following
results.

RESULT:

- "partition3" gone as planned

- "partition2" nologer showing in explorer or disk management.

1. CHKDSK = Error messge "Cannot open
volume for direct access."

2. RECOVER = Error messge "Cannot
determine file system of drive "partition2" ".

- "partition1"

1. CHKDSK = Error messge "The type of
the file system is RAW. CHKDSK is not available for RAW drives."

2. RECOVER = Error messge "The type of
the file system is RAW. RECOVER is not available for RAW drives."

I have since then rebooted once again in a feeble hope that the partition
table might correct itself but this would be to easy of a solution to hope
for and failed to work. I beleive I dont have to worry about the data being
over writtten at any time since the pagefile and other similar system
operations are not located on this drive. I am in dier need of a way to
recover the lost data and could use any and all solutions.

Good thing you backed up your data before messing with your partitions.
Or perhaps you didn't read the docs first?
