I feel like a right plonker at the moment! I accidently managed to wipe the wrong ntfs partition by creating a fat32 one. Its all to do with an external seagate drive im trying to sort out. The seagate has been hooked up to a bt home hub and needed to be fat32 so I used a tool to wipe it. Had some problems with it corrupting files so proceeded to fix it and then stupidly wiped the wrong drive:rolleyes:

And thats after already sussing out the correct stuff! Talk about massive fail lol.

Anyway is there anything I can do? or am i shafted?

The tool I used is called "FAT32Format.exe" or "Guiformat" it basically allows large disks to be formatted as fat32 so PS3's and other things can see it and has been working for a few days no problems. I stupidly ran it and just went and re-did the partition without looking close enougth.
