Jean,
It sounds like you know your way around this stuff, what does FDISK show ?
Does it recognize both partitions ? Can you see them with Norton GHOST ?
How about putting it in alone and from floppy trying " fdisk/mbr " in DOS ?
Hopefully rewriting the mbr would help.

good luck.

Hello,

I am trying to salvage some data from a Compaq 5192 hdd . I put
the hdd into another PC, and BIOS checks the drive ok. Windows on the
other hand does not recognize the parition. I guess its because of the

compaq
paritition on the hdd ?

What I would like to do is to get access to the DATA partition on that

hdd, I
don't care if that drive works again in Compaq or not. I just need to move

the
data over to another hdd.

What do I need ?

thanks
