I've installed ubuntu as a dual boot option with windows 7 to use the data recovery tools on another corrupt disc.

The recovered files are on the ubuntu partition, but my ubuntu unstallation has now gone weird and wont let me login.

Windows does not see the ubuntu partition under disc management. Any way of accessing this through windows 7. I've installed ext2explore but it cannot see the drive as windows does not.

Any ideas?

The ubuntu partition should be on the same disc as /dev/sdc2 on /media/0E4888FF4888E735 (which is my win7 installation)

I've managed to to reinstall gnome-power-manager through the terminal and now have ubuntu back up and running. Copying the files over to a usb drive.

Am confused and annoyed that I cannot find the damn ubuntu partition though. Will turn the pc off and note exactly how big my hds are when done.
 
Window and Ubuntu are installed on one of the 200GB drives. Computer Management reports the disc size as being 189.82GB in size with a 100MB System Reserved partition.
