705769 2008-09-16 08:03:00 I have a 100gb HDD on a laptop at home and the OS wasn't booting up and I had one of these sitting in the house so I tried to "rebuild" the patition table.
BAD MOVE. Now the drive is 23mb out of 100gb full.
I need the data in there!
Is there anyway I can recover the whole 2 partitions back ? C and D
please speak in ENGLISH please
Thanks

I have a external HDD at home, do I put the laptop HD in there?
Is that slaving?

What software do I use?
And whats a live linux CD?

I want to get the OS up and running too, how to I restore thje system files and keep all the settings?

Thanks
