Well from those photo's your going to need some software to recover anything you want off the 320 gig.
Somehow the partitions have been removed it seems like and thats why it is seen in cmos and disk management and not in my computer. To be seen in my computer you need a partition and it needs to be formatted.

Thanks for the reply Ferrit.
Strange how the partitions disappeared as the only thing that was changed was the master drive.
Looking at the Disk Management reading, it is reported as 298GBs. Where has the other 22GBs gone I wonder?
Any good free hard drive recovery programs about? I have Partition Magic 7.0 but it only gives options to create or undelete. Should I try the undelete option?

a little utility called Test Disk will find deleted partitions and reewrite the info to the drive. presto...partitions and all data is restored. be sure and read the Docs that come with it. it isnt hard to use but you have to use reasonable caution.

Thanks for the help guys.
I decided that I would reformat the disk on the master IDE on it's own. Installed W2k and has been running alright for a few days up until now.
I'm getting freezing and locking and have noticed that the MSI PCAlert4 is showing that my +5v rail is up and down like a yoyo. Anything from 4.68v upto 5.03v within a fews seconds.
Anyone have idea what this could indicate? Current PSU Corsair TX750W Only 6 months old.
