system partition gone.....

[r_haarberg]

by a mistake, removed my revovery partition by using the safe to
remove icon down on the right side of the screen.

i managed to unhide the partition again, but this time with a different
letter..

now i cant use outlook express, system restore etc.
my programs that usually also starts when i start the computer, want
start either

any ideas?

Your post does not make sense, for several reasons:
1. if you removed the recovery partition you would not be able to "unhide the partition again";
2. the "safe to remove" icon in the system tray refers to a removable hardware device, like a USB drive or a digital camera, not to your recovery partition; and,
3. removing the recovery partition does not affect your existing Windows installation, so removing the recovery partition does not affect Outlook Express, system restore or the programs that start with your computer.

Recovery partitions are created by the individual computer manufacturers, so if you have a question about your recovery partition, please contact your computer manufacturer.

Ask questions about Outlook Express in the Outlook Express newsgroup:
news://microsoft.public,outlookexpress.general

and please describe your problem in detail, including the full text of any error messages you see.

You are welcome to ask questions about system restore and the startup programs in this newsgroup. Please post back with a detailed explanation of your problem, and include the full text of any error messages you receive.

A tip: The custom in public newsgroups is to ask one question per post. Therefore, kindly make separate posts for your problems with system restore and startup programs. This also offers a better chance that both questions will be answered.

sometimes people makes it hard for you.....

this is what happend.

i had a mp3 player connected to my usb, which i was gonna remove using
the safe remove icon. it seems i removed the wrong disk, which i dont
know. because after that problems started.

my revovery partition letter went missing. i used partition magic to
unhide it, getting the message that certain program could stop working.
when that was done, it had a different letter instead of the originally
letter D. i cant either use the system restore option, is just shows me
a white blank page, i cant write any mesages in the outlook express,
all program that starts when the computer starts, cant bee seen, such
as norman. opening task manager shows me it has been loaded though. msn
messenger had for instance to be reinstalled.

theres no error messages shown.

hoe this will clear the matter so far, and any help is deeply
appreciated.

You recently don't make much sense. As previously noted.
Do you speak good English?
You had a USB removable HDD?? That yuo disconnected by mistake?
What was on it? do yuo boot from removable drive?

When you talked about "recovery partition", most Recovery partitions are on
"Boot" HDD and are "hioden" as you said. You don't want to delete it. So if
that's not the case, yuo are confusing people.

It sounds like you messed up your "recovery partition" and yuor Windows
installation!!!



What is the configuration of yuor computer????
What make is it? Do yuo have "Recovery CD" or what?

What is program "norman"?

You need to reinstall windows, if possible. If you screwed up "recovery
partition", then you are in real troube!!!!

Hi,

You could have tried Active@ partition recovery utility. It works great
and helped me before when I lost partition. Recommended.

Hello,
I suppose using Data Recovery tool - Partition Table Doctor or EASEUS
DataRecoveryWizard.
It is imho the best one among it's family. Easy to use and powerful.
It actually never failed me before. Recommended!
