Help!! All my files on my secondary internal harddrive are gone....is there anyway to get them back. First off let me explain what happened. Ok I have Windows XP on my cpu (Yes I know ancient), and have two harddrives in my computer. C being my main (Master) and D: being my secondary (Slave). One day a couple weeks back I left the computer on to download, well the power in the house went out which of course knocked the cpu off. Shortly after I returned home the power came back on so I turned on the cpu and noticed that it was saying D drive was corrupt and needed to perform a chk dsk so I let it. When I got in the system everything was working find and I had everything in my C drive but my D drive was missing files and pictures. I decided to do a System Restore through windows to a few days prior but after doing that and restarting ALL the files on the D drive were gone and Firefox would not open. Internet Explorer also would not start up. It kept saying that I didnt have a connectionk, so through advice of AT&T who I had come out because I figure something was wrong with the connection, he said to have someone put setup for Explorer and Firefox on a flash drive which I did and now that is working fine. I am still missing all my files on the D drive however. In my computer it shows that the drive is still there. The amount of space used and what is left, but when I click to view the folders there is nothing. I tried to do a check disk and repair on the drive through windows and it always stops at Phase 2 saying that it could not complete. Is there anyway to get my pics back or is this hard drive just gone and I have lost everything?
