Boot a W2K or XP or 2003 CD and choose the first R=Repair option to get the recovery console. From there you can do a CHKDSK if the partition is recognized. And if that doesn't recognize the partition, then it's probably been damaged by something (very likely a virus/worm). You may be able to recover something with the recovery software at http://www.ontrack.com.

It has 2 partitions on it. WinNT is on the C: partition. The error I get is the volume is corrupt and can't go any further. I tried booting using the ERD disk and repairing it, but it still tells me it is corrupt. I am out of ideas, can anyone help?
