bring inaccessible dynamic volume back to normal

[Antares]

My hard drive went south yesterday. I now have a 6.4 GB drive as a temporary drive. However, my secondary drive will not be recognized by Windows even though it was initially created in Windows 2000.

Every time I try to access this drive, I get a message that the drive is not accessible - The parameter is incorrect.

I have too much irreplaceable information on this drive that formatting it would not be advantageous for me. What can I do to get this drive back to normal so that I can back my info up?

By the way, this is a dynamic volume.

Oh no you didn't post without reading the rules....

12. Very often we see meaningless subjects in topic title. They give no clue of what the posts are all about. For example:

- Oh no!

- Help

- I'm mad

- Please help

- Question

- I need your help

- Hmmmm ....

This should be avoided. Users should enter something more specific in topic title so that it is easier for others to help.

A few good examples:

- Strange problem with DirectX9b redist

- RunOnceEx install problem (double installation)

- Change Internet Explorer's Icon back to default

Please try to remember next time.

Connect drive to different machine, and EasyRecovery Pro could be helpful.

My bad. I was in a major panic that I wasn't thinking.

I'll try that and see what happens.
