HI,
I've just bought a new SSD and reinstalled windows, originally I had 3 HDD's the plan was to remove data from 2 HDD's onto the one 2tb drive so I had a SSD and one 2tb drive.
The problem is on one of the drives I plan to get rid I had an old Linux partition which I used a partition manager (could have been partition magic not sure) to recover the Linux partition and make it a NTFS partition windows could use so I didn't lose any data from the other partition.
Unfortunately I forgot to copy the data over from the previous install before installing the new SSD and the partition shows as a RAW partition.
So I tried to boot up the copy of windows 8 I still have on the 2tb drive but it just BSOD's and I have tried a number of free tools (trying testdisk now) but the partition is not detected.
Does anyone know how I can get round this.
