Data Recovery Help after converting hard disk to basic from dynamic?
I changed the computer and try to use my old 200 Seagate IDE NTFS at the new vista computer. When I connected the IDE disk, I saw it at Bios and also at the computer management in dynamic form.
Unfortunately, I converted the dynamic disk to basic disk w/o back up.
Now disk wants to be formated when I try to acces from "My computer" in every computer I connect to.
Is there a way to recover data.
would you please be specific more that saying try this software, maybe it helps.
I am sure someone has faced this problem and I would like to hear if there is an exact solution..
Thank you in advance for all..

Thank you for all the answers. I will try them and inform you about the result asap.
You can try to recover your data with Easy Drive Data Recovery software:

It uses unique modern algorithms to recover files that other software either recovers incorrectly or is unable to detect.
Dont like the help?
Dont ask for the help then.
it never ceases to amaze me how quickly people are willing to point out failures in others while they themselves are failing.
So i failed to answer your question and pointed out that youre not trying very hard and that rubs you the wrong way, eh?
Well, thats what you get for using Yahoo Answers.
Dont like it? tough!
The disk must not have any volumes nor contain any data before you can change it back to a basic disk. If you want to keep your data, back it up or move it to another volume before you convert the disk to a basic disk.Once you change a dynamic disk back to a basic disk, you can create only partitions and logical drives on that disk. hope this helps

It doesn’t matter if the drive has been reformatted or not.
Connect as slave drive and go to http://www.fastfilerecovery.com and use their free analysis on your drive to determine if your data is recoverable. I’ve used this program before with good results. Looks like they have a special going on the product as well.
I hope it helps, good luck!
