my partition was lost & converted to RAW, can i get it back?

i was using acronis to merge 2 drives (one of them is primary & containing the win7)
the operation failed because of some bad sectors
then the windows7 drive was converted into RAW

can i get it back? please tell me if you did it before or something like that

 

if you use win 7 as your PC System. you don't need extra software like acronis, cause win 7 have app windows management for live partition. you can get back your partition format use that app.. ^^
if you need help, just try to share here. maybe i'll try to help you.

 

yes, but iam working now with the old system (win xp)
iam thinking about installing windows on it (it's on another hard drive)
can i install win7 without formatting xp to use this app you are talking about

 

yes, it is possible.
Lot of tutorials available on web.

 

thanks jamuna, but i need only one tutorial may i have a link?

 

well you may try to Recover the data.. there are softwares like R-Studio which recovers the data.. then Format the drive to NTFS....

 

You may try get back data(fat or NTFS ) to recover your data. It work for me

 

I did not face exactly your problem but i do believe that the best software that can recover as much data as possible are easeus products!
