The 10G part of a 5/10 split GXP75 has gone AWOL.
I had a lot of problems trying to get my files off it to backup as it would hang up and I would have to reboot. After 30 reboots I finally got everything off it.
I tried to format it but it hangs at about 79%structure and 84%check bad sectors in Partition Magik. Subsequently now can run Norton Disk Doctor on it 'cause its unformated...

Since its on Part B of a 5/10 Partition - I'm afraid of repartitioning the whole drive as it might hang up the lot....

The c: or 5GB part works fine - so its not a spinning problem - any hope of rescue or have I just inherited 10G of wasted space on a 15G drive?
