I had a catastrophic trojan error a few days back. Here's my system: 2 Maxtor
sata drives (6l200mo {200gb sata}, 6l300so {300gb sata} 1 WD 400bb {40gb
IDE} AMD Athlon 64 x2 3800+ (2.0ghz); I just got another 2 gb of ram
installed, so I'm up to 3 gb; my mobo is a Fatality an8-sli. Before the fatal
error, I was running the 200gb as my Windows drive and the 300gb held all my
games, music and photos and stuff like that. I was using the 40gb IDE drive
as a strict system swap drive, to offload all the work from the 200gb and not
keep it filled. I had an adminstrator account and a Winlogon password...
after redoing the 40 and using that as my Windows drive now, I cannot get to
the 200gb drive to get anything off of that and move it to the 40gb. I can't
access the 200gb at all... Windows has it as read only. Is there a way to fix
this issue so I can save my pics and movies and things like that? or do I
have to re-do the 200gb and lose some of the things I want to keep? I have
installed AVG-free 8 on the 40gb and it found the trojan and some other
viruses in the system restore files on the 200gb drive, which is no longer my
active Windows drive. I have tried to explore my way to the Windows folder on
the drive in question, but when I attempt to do anything with it, I get the
error noise and the dialog box that says that it's not accessable. Any
suggestions?
