If you had a copy of Norton Utilities, you could try to diagnose
the file system on D: Most likely it's a corrupted boot sector. That's why the
OS is telling you that it's unformatted.
Don't panic.
:cool:
Come to think of it, Scandisk might be able to tell you something,
and fix MBR and/or boot sector corruption.
OK well im in knoppix right now and its ****ing awsome...but anyways....
i can access D:\ or on knoppix hdb1...i can even open all files and see them...now here is this problem...i try making a new directory in C or even D but it wont create it...i cant even copy or cut the files from hdb1 to a directory in dha1...and i want to log in as root but wtf is the password? Heh my 1st linux experience...now i belive windows sux
edit: it doesnt wanna take any commands...like mkdir /mnt/d or mount dev/hda1 /mnt/d....it sais something like this...

I really need help :D
Hahahha....sorry for posting twice but this one deserves it :D
OMG wtf did i do...i used my boot disk for my hard disk in which i can set my disks up etc...and move stuff....now i copied everything from D to C and it deleted everything else like windows and stuff...any suggestions on what to do now?
Maybe unplug my C and restore on D and make my D the boot drive then when i have xp again i could connect C again and set it as slave...any better ideas?
edit: looks like ima be stuck with linux knoppix for couple days
there might be a problem though...my D disk is kinda unstable to say
...windows recognizes it but its only showing 35GB instead of 80 GB til i put my hard disk boot floppy...it fixes it to 80GB but deletes all the stuff on D...so i was thinking i could take the C: to some other computer get all the files onto CDs format it and reinstall windows onto C...that would work i think
any better ideas are more than welcome ;)
