WD hard drive partition just work! Help! [hard drive partition] [gb western digital]
Q: I have a 160 GB Western Digital drive HRD. I had a partition in three sizes: 10 GB disks, 40 GB, 100 GB. I had a TON of information on the last disc and that is no longer used and accessible.
I am win2k startup, the entire computer crashes. Culture Prize because I did not know what was going on, I came to disconnecting the hard drive and add as another drive on my XP box. I can access the C, D and a backup of the data I want from there. However, when I go to my computer, the blocks. I see the disk through Windows Explorer as “N”, the letter that it confers (c and d are L and M), whenever I double or right click on the N drive (where are the third partition), does nothing. I tried going through disk manager and it just shows the drive as healthy.
Any ideas or suggestions? I have a lot of information I need on 100 GB drive. Thanks in Advance.

Re:I had setup the drive letters in the original system, but when the hard drive is hooked up to the other system (setup as secondary drive since it wont boot) it assigned those letters. so thats why i state the old letters and new ones.
