Re: Can dynamic disk be converted to basic disk? sorry to bump this thread up, but seems like my hdd is badly damaged now. test disk shows this:
.......Partition..................Start........... ................End..............Size in Sectors
D HPFS - NTFS............0.........1..1......12748........2 54 63..........204812622 [New Volume]
D HPFS - NTFS............12748 54 42.....60800.......254 63..........771968002 [New Volume]
using > arrow key i can change the D to * (bootable), P - Primary, D - deleted, L - Logical.
Also have options of: A: Add partition, L = load backup, T = change type, P = list files.
if i change any one to P or * i get the whole line in green colour like this: P or * HPFS - NTFS............0.........1..1......12748........2 54 63..........204812622 [New Volume]
but if the do anything to second line (with first line green ) i get structure damaged error.
Tried - P (i get file structure damaged), L - no partition found, backup does ot match or damaged.
Tried Analyse - no partition found, takes long time.
How to undelete the 2 partitions which is shown as deleted currently? pls help any1 who has used testdisk??
