Hi,
There were four partitions on it,
1) NTFS (primary partition), I have windows vista installed on it
2) FAT32, for data storage
3) NTFS, for data storage
4) ext2, for linux (it was further partitioned under linux environment)
I used Paragon Partition manager. And the latest modification on the partition before it was corrupted was
1) shrinking the ext2 from 100GB to 50GB (resulting in 50GB free space),
2) deleting an 80GB FAT32 partition, and creating a 130GB (80+50) NTFS one, i.e. the 3) mentioned above.
I am not sure if it is true that only the partition table has been corrupted. Thank you very much.
