    Unhappy HELP!!!!!!! I screwed up!

    While installing Windows 2000 onto my wife's computer,I accidentlt deleted a partition that I didnt want to kill. ACK!!!! I wasnt paying attention! Is there ANY way to get the partition rebuilt without destroying the data? It was, and I mean was, a FAT32 partition. Thanks!

    I think He means Partition Magic. If your running Win2k Makesure you use Ver. 6 if you want to try to do within windows. I am not sure if it will do it or not, But if there is a program that can it would be the one.

    Thanks everynody. I went out and got Partition Magic 6.0, and I got the partition back, and the data is saved, and so am I! I was meaning to pick this program up anyway, and now seemed like the perfect time to do so. Did not take much to convince my wife of that too! <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">
