Here is the promised URL for the partition rescue paper. http://www.datarescue.com/partition.htm I used it with great succes. Thanks to a very stupid mistake, I trashed my partition table including the partition boot block of a HPFS partition. With an HPFS tool I recreated the boot block of the HPFS partion. Afterwards I used the aforementioned paper to repair the partition table and got it all up and running again! Lost nothing!! It was hard manual labour and cost me several nights, but then again.... :-) Koos Pol ---------------------------------------------------------------------- S.C.
