Hi

I have just tried to install a new HD. My attempts have failed, Windows
refuses to acknoledge the new HD.
It seems however that after much fiddling with FDisk and formating that I
have now lost the contents of one of the (compressed) partitions of my
original HD, although how I manged that I have no idea as I was careful to
ensure I only used FDisk on the 2nd drive and only formatted the F: drive
which is the letter asigned to the new drive.

Does anyone know how I can recover my E: ?
And also does anyone know how I can get this new HD to work ?

**PC Info**
Award BIOS (1996)
Pentium 100mhz
32mb RAM
1 Gig EIDE Western Digital HD (original drive) Master
-C:\ (Compressed, 200mb)
-D:\ (Compressed, 412mb)
