Guys, please help! I use 2 HDD on my windows XP pc, 1 which holds the OS and all program files, and the other 1 all my Documents and Files. Ok, so I formatted my OS hdd today, because windows was giving me a hard time and slow loading times. So, I checked that I had all my documents on my 2nd Hard drive. Just to be extra sure that I dont accidentaly format my Document drive, I completely removed it during the format process. Everything went fine. When XP finished installing, I replaced the Data HDD and windows picked it up. Now, the 1 folder which contains all my stuff on the HDD, is gone! It shows that I used 180gb on that drive, but the files that are visible (and hidden) only make up 8gb. . . This is not good!
I know I linked this folder to windows, so that when you open My Computer and select My Documents, it goes to the other HDD folder. I don't know if this had anything to do with it! When I try to create a new folder with that name, windows says it already exists! HELP PLZ!
