Unless you used some utility, there is not backup copy of the
partition table. There are utilities that will be able to rebuild the
partition table if it was a normally partitioned drive. What happened
to your partition table? It is considered polite to have more to your
usenet post than a subject line.

These guys have some information on NTFS.
NTFS has a backup copy of the partition table. NTFS partiation information
is stored at the beginnng, in the middle and and at the end of the drive.
This site has information on that and has some partition recovery and file
recovery software they sell. You might try looking at this site to see what
they have:

Thanks for the info. I just wish I hadn't already sent a hundred bucks
for the Stellar Phoenix! I tried the demo from the above site and it
shows my folders and files, but so did Stellar Phoenix.
I suppose I'll give it a try. Thanks again.
