Unfortunately that was the Backup Plan- the entire machine is due to be picked up on monday at noon for extensive tampering (amongst other issues the original HDD was faulty, hence formated after data transpher), the drive I backed my files up being my own to keep while the machine'd be in maintainance
This is how it happened: I set up 4 same size logical drive partitions à 50 gigs: C (System); D; E; F and transphered all valuable data from the non faulty sectors of the other HDD to D. Then, for security reasons all of the old HDD were formated to return to the company the computer was purchased from (bad idea). But what could happen? After all I am merely 2 and a half days from general maintainance and the newly set up system is perfectly clean... well, I needed to make some print outs and couldnt find my driver cd for lexmark x83 and decided to go to the official lexmark site and download those on the fly... (bad idea 2) ... after installation I realised to my astonishment that the driver files installed themselves on a new, virtual partition (a mirror of C) where they were residing on their own... I rebooted after being unable to remove these files or the virtual partition- and the reboot was unsuccessful- ran bootfix and C partition allowed an OK boot... but only C appeared, taking up all disk space, yet merely having the 50 gigs available. The other partitions just didn't exist anymore - I tried many things to reactivate the partitions but no reference was found via diskpart and other programes... so I had to format everything again... and that's it, basically...
My game files and moddings, Cv's, Porn (hey, I'm old enough), Audio and music files went out the chimney
