Posted by: Jassu

ok well i had 3 drives
my basic c drive wich had bout 10 gigs
my m drive also 10 gigs
and d drive with also 10 gigs
so i decided to do a factory restart but when that was all said and done my c drive was erased wich was supposed to be the only one erased cause i had done this before but all the files that were in my m drive were now in my d drive and my m drive vanished none of the files are on my comp
so lost 10 gigs of room
can i get it back??

Try using a copy of Patition Magic to get the space back. What most likely hapened is that duing the new install, you acidentaly deleted that partition. With PMagic you can make a new parition from unpartitioned harddrive space.

You need to format it first.
