Okay.. I recently had some problems with PartitionMagic, which made one of my computers completely unbootable. There are some files that I don't have backed up, which I really need.. I've used Winternals Disk Commander off a bootable disk-- which enables me to see the necessary files, and makes it possible for me to back them up-- but only to a floppy (which isn't a possibility.. the files are all too large). It recognizes the bootable CD as C:, and the ram as R:
So.. what I really need, is to be able to back the files up to another working hard drive, which I already connected as the IDE Master. (the hdd with the damaged partition is a SATA)...
Well.. but Disk Commander won't recognize the IDE drive.. even though the BIOS does.
What can I do?? I've tried using another version of the Winternals Disk Commander, which is built into a live-cd by Winternals.. but that program can't even see that the SATA exists.
Any suggestions? I would really appreciate any help!
