The Disk Management Snap-in tool is a free data recovery program which helps in recovering the deleted Windows partition (NTFS or FAT32 dynamic volume). Whenever a dynamic volume is deleted it is actually the sector 0 which is deleted. That data can be restored from the backup boot sectors.

Things to remember before performing partition recovery:

The FAT 16 partition cannot be restored with the help of this method as there is no provision in it for back up boot sector. Also the RAID-5 or dynamic mirror volume cannot be restored with the help of this method. A Windows XP user would have to try the Windows XP Recovery Console for restoring the deleted data.

Steps for restoring the deleted NTFS Volume

The basic idea is to recreate the NTFS volume without actually formatting it. So a user should remember the exact size of the previous volume which was created.

First run the Dskprobe.exe tool for restoring the backup boot sector of the NTFS volume. This tool restores backup from the remotest corners. Search the backup boot sector with the help of Dmdiag.exe tool. Exit the Dskprobe program after rewriting the NTFS boot sector. In the Disk Management options select the Rescan Disks Tab from the Action menu. This would make the NTFS ready for instant use.

Steps for restoring the deleted FAT32 Volume

The basic idea is to recreate the FAT32 volume without actually formatting it. So a user should remember the exact size of the previous volume which was created.

First run the Dskprobe.exe tool for restoring the backup boot sector of the FAT32 volume. This tool restores backup from the remotest corners. Search the backup boot sector with the help of Dmdiag.exe tool. Exit the Dskprobe program after rewriting the FAT32 boot sector. In the Disk Management options select the Rescan Disks Tab from the Action menu. This would make the partition (FAT 32) ready for instant use.

Steps for restoring the deleted partition in Windows XP

First, Check whether the recovery console is installed on the Windows XP installation disc or not. If it is not installed then he would have to set the the startup option in Windows.

Insert the Windows CD, restart the computer then select the start boot option. Select the repair or recover (R) option when the startup begins. Select the repair or recover option for initiating boot from the CD. Provide the recovery commands and enter the Administrator password. For information on any other command Type "commandname" in the help menu:

Attrib: -R, +R,-S, +S, -H, +H, -C, +C

Notes: + Sets an attribute, - Resets an attribute, R Read-only file attribute, S System file attribute, H Hidden file attribute, C Compressed file attribute.

BATCH: batch inputfile [outputfile]

BOOTCFG: bootcfg /redirect com1 115200, bootcfg /redirect useBiosSettings

If the free data recovery program has not restored the Windows partition then a user would have to refer a specifically designed software. He can refer the RecoveryFIX for windows Data Recovery Program which restores partitions from any kind of situation.

Location wise the state of New Jersey is situated among many big cities of United States of America, such as Boston, Philadelphia, New York City, Washington D.C and Baltimore. This is the reason that new Jersey has witnessed a fast industrial growth over the past few decades. The growth of business has propelled industries as well as small enterprises to opt for advanced and secure data storage means like RAID systems. RAID has given a new dimension to data storage and management. But, say it its internal issues, human errors or any natural calamity, failure of RAID systems have been a major set-back to the industries. However, with the rise of many New Jersey data recovery service providers, safe RAID recovery is no longer a big deal.

The RAID systems are made up of multiple low cost hard disk drives to be worked as a single system. Inside the RAID, there is a controller chip, which manages the data storage and assessment in the attached drives. RAID systems are undoubtedly efficient in terms of storage capacity and fault tolerance. In case of RAID level 5 or above, if one disk fails or goes offline, you can replace the disk with a new healthy disk and easily restore the data back.

However, the real problem arises, if there is a simultaneous failure of more than one drives. Because of its complex data distribution pattern and internal architecture, RAID data recovery is a very complicated process. Moreover, if you make a small mistake, it will cost you your whole data beyond the scope of recovery.

Therefore, it is always advised to take utmost care in case you encounter any instance of RAID failure and immediately take professional assistance. Professional data recovery services NJ providers are trained to data with various RAID failures. They analyze the situation, the RAID configuration used and steps taken by you at the time of failure to devise the moist appropriate recovery process. Data recovery from RAID is a systematic process. If the drives are accessible, they are cloned and the recovery operation is carried out on the cloned drives for the safety of the source drives. If the drives are inaccessible, they are treated inside CLASS 100 Clean Room labs to repair them without any further damage.

Stellar Data Recovery USA Inc. is an experienced RAID recovery service provider in New Jersey. With years of experience, skilled recovery team and all the necessary RAID data recovery assets, such as CLASS 100 Clean Room labs, Stellar ensures maximum possible recovery of your valuable RAID data within minimum turnaround time.

Do your own data recovery on a Windows Dynamic Raid Array with several damaged drives in the array. This shows how to repair the drives, add them back in a system and review how R-Studios can show the Logical Disk Management Slices and can let you recover from them.
Video Rating: 5 / 5

RAID Is great until it breaks. Once it breaks you restore from backups, because the data is gone. Redundant RAID systems like 1 and 5 are fine, until you don't repair the volume before you lose a critical number of drives, but once you go critical your only option is to restore from back up. There are drive recovery services but you are looking at 10's of thousands of dollars.

The Black & White Cafe St Paul's... and its troubled history

Image by brizzle born and bred
This article reviews the troubled history of The Black & White Cafe in the district St Paul's Bristol England.

See View 2010

2003 - The owner of the Black and White Cafe says it is; a family business selling Caribbean food. The police claim it is the focal-point for drug dealers in St Paul's and that it has been raided more times; than any other premises in Britain.

Now the city council is trying to force the sale of the building and turn a dilapidated terrace into affordable homes.

Steven Wilks' family has owned the Black and White Cafe for more than 30 years. Its reputation has spread far and wide — but not for the quality of the traditional Jamaican food, such as. curried goat, served there.

The rundown building in the middle of a row of derelict houses is in an area notorious for drug dealers. Police have made hundreds of arrests either inside or just outside the cafe over the last two decades.

An incomplete log of incidents, operations, raids, complaints and arrests formed part of the evidence presented to a public inquiry in 2003 which will determine whether Bristol City Council can compulsorily purchase the Black and White Cafe.

The inquiry will decide whether compulsory purchase order proceedings should be allowed to go ahead on the terrace in Grosvenor Road in which the cafe stands.

The council and Knightstone Housing Association want to redevelop the terrace into seven three-bed low-cost family homes. Planning inspector Robert Sexton will draw up a report and submit it to the Secretary of State, who will announce a decision later in the year.

The log shows 54 dates on which police went into the cafe to carry out searches and make arrests for offences ranging from drug dealing to assault and robbery - There were another 164 on which police made arrests or were called to incidents outside the cafe.

One was the murder of Gary Mignott on May 1,1999, which still remains unsolved. The cafe first hit the headlines in 1980 when rioting broke out after police raided the premises and seized alcohol. During the riots a bank and a post office were attacked and a row of shops and a warehouse in Brighton Street were set alight.

Twelve police cars and several fire engines were damaged or set ablaze and more than 50 people were injured.

Since then, there have been many incidents linked to the Grosvenor Road area, none more terrifying then when members of the Aggi Crew stormed in to the Black and White Cafe, armed with guns and demanded a 'tax' from a rival gang of Jamaican drug dealers.

Avon and Somerset police learned about the potential bloodbath and took the unprecedented step of putting armed officers on 24-hour patrol in St Paul's and Easton.

Most of the Aggi Crew are now back in prison and last summer police turned their attention to the remaining Jamaican dealers.

There were 41 arrests in three days of raids and since then those convicted of dealing have been receiving sentences of about five years.

Mr Wilks, who also owns a house in Redland and a restaurant in Whiteladies Road, Clifton, told the inquiry that drug dealing was rife and it would only move somewhere else if the cafe closed.

He said: "We want the chance to be in the rejuvenation programme of St Paul's.

"I don't want to sell my business for £500,000 or £600,000. For 30 years we have provided black food for the black community. If you want to relocate me, you will have to relocate me in Clifton but I don't want to lose my roots."

He said the city council and Knightstone had tried to paint the most negative image they could of the cafe to get it closed. "I've seen this document showing all the incidents that happened in the cafe," he said.

"If somebody gets stabbed in Ashley Road, then the newspapers will say they got shot outside the Black and White Cafe. Anything that happens always get re-directed so that it happened outside the cafe but the taxman is still taking his money"

He said: "I don't sell drugs. I've got a business in Whiteladies Road and if you were to ask if there were drug activities up there in Clifton, 'I don't think so' because they would never allow it. The cafe has been subject to negative press since day one but closing the cafe is not going to change the drug situation in St Paul's. St Paul's is rife with drugs.

"Crack cocaine has mashed up the community and we have all felt that, myself included."

2003 article

Hidden behind deeply tinted windows, the Black and White Cafe in the St Paul's district of Bristol has a tiny formica counter where you can buy traditional Caribbean fare such as ackee, saltfish, curried goat and jerk chicken. But no one comes here for the food.

In a society where open dealing is no longer out of the ordinary, the Black and White Cafe stands out from the crowd as the biggest and most blatant hard drug den in Britain.

This run-down building in the middle of a row of derelict houses has been raided more times than any other premises in the country, according to Avon and Somerset police. Last weekend alone saw three separate raids which resulted in 17 arrests and the recovery of thousands of pounds worth of crack cocaine. The scene of countless shootings, stabbings and armed robberies - many of which have never been reported - the cafe is also at the epicentre of increasingly violent gang activity.

Closed down and boarded up by the city council last year, the cafe re-opened two weeks ago and ever since has been at the heart of a battle between Bristol's indigenous drug gangs and an influx of Jamaican dealers who are attempting to take over the trade. Bristol is the latest in a long line of cities to be hit by an explosion of Yardie activity as drug gangs move their activities outside London in search of new markets.

A report presented to Cleveland police last month noted that in 2001, just one Jamaican dealer was arrested in Middlesborough for selling Class A drugs. Last year the figure was 32. Jamaican dealers have also been arrested in North and South Wales, Hull and Aberdeen but nowhere have the problems been more apparent than in Bristol. Last month officers attached to Operation Atrium, a major initiative against the city's crack trade, arrested 56 people, 36 of whom were Jamaican nationals.

Last year the same team uncovered a bogus college in the St Paul's area - scene in the 1980s of race riots sparked by drugs raids - which had provided long-term visas to more than 300 Jamaicans. Of those 'students', 45 have since been charged with drug offences, 11 with weapons charges, one with rape and another with attempted murder. A further 121 are being detained on immigration offences while 148 remain on the run.

In many cities the arrival of large numbers of Jamaicans has resulted in violent confrontations and many detectives believe it is only a matter of time before one area erupts into all out warfare. Police in Cleveland are bracing themselves for a rise in gun crime as a result of the Yardie invasion and similar fears have been expressed in Scotland and Wales. These same clashes are at the heart of the problem in Bristol and at the centre of it all is the Black and White Cafe.

During the Nineties, the city's drug trade was in the hands of a local gang known as the Aggi crew, an acronym formed from the surnames of the founding members, but in 1998 six of the Aggi crew were jailed after being caught dealing drugs worth more than £1 million. They had been arrested in raids involving more than 300 police officers who uncovered an arsenal of firearms including shotguns, handguns and thousands of rounds of ammunition.

Last month several key members of the Aggi crew were released on probation and emerged from prison to discover that in their absence the city's drug trade had been taken over by a Jamaican gang known as the Hype crew. Arming themselves, the Aggi crew stormed into the Black and White Cafe and demanded the Jamaicans pay 'tax' to them if they wanted to continue dealing in the city. Then, as a final mark of disrespect, they robbed every person in the cafe at gun point.

As they handed over their money and possessions, the Jamaicans told the Aggi crew that they would not be paying them a single penny and that the only way to resolve the argument would be with guns.

It didn't take long for Avon and Somerset police to learn about the potential bloodbath. They responded by taking the unprecedented step of placing armed officers on 24-hour foot patrol in the most volatile areas - the streets around the Black and White Cafe and Stapleton Road in the neighbouring district of Easton. They also launched a series of raids on the homes of the Aggi crew who, as a result, have now been returned to prison.

The move has significantly reduced the threat of gang warfare but has left the drug trade solely in the hands of the Jamaicans. Often dismissed as 'disorganised' rather than organised crime, Jamaican dealers in Bristol have actually brought a new level of cunning to the drug business. Instead of holding wraps of crack in their mouths, the dealers on Stapleton Road placed the drugs in old Coke cans which would then be left in the gutter. After handing over their money, customers would then be directed to the nearest can. The scam made it almost impossible for police to link batches of drugs to specific dealers and gave some degree of protection from prosecution.

To prevent their merchandise being swept away, the dealers also launched a massive campaign of intimidation against the council's utility workers. Refuse collections halted altogether in many areas as did road and pavement repairs (dealers were also hiding drugs in the cracks in the pavement). The dealers then turned their attention to the workers attempting to install CCTV systems. Within weeks Stapleton Road had become known as the 'street of fear' with dealers, prostitutes and muggers operating with virtual impunity. In a seven-month period, 915 crimes were recorded along a 150-metre stretch.

Although Avon and Somerset police have poured massive resources into dealing with the problem and made great progress, they admit that they are far from finding a solution. 'We have made more than 800 arrests in the past 18 months but on the streets the problem remains as bad as ever,' Detective Chief Inspector Neil Smart, head of Operation Atrium, told The Observer. 'There is a lot of gun crime that we do not get to hear about and we suspect there have been drive-by shootings at the Black and White Cafe that have never been reported. The place is known around the world. Two of my officers were on assignment in Jamaica and they overheard two locals talking about the Black and White being the place to go to get drugs in Bristol.'

When The Observer visited the cafe last week it was business as usual. The air was thick with the cloying smell of cannabis and the sounds of hard reggae. A dozen people were milling about close to the pinball machine while the main room was dominated by two snooker tables, both of which were in constant use. According to local detectives the players are often the main dealers. Drugs are taped to the base of the snooker tables allowing easy access but again frustrating police efforts to link drugs to particular dealers.

An attempt to prosecute the cafe's owner, Stephen Wilks, for allowing drugs to be sold on the premises ended in failure. Last week the city council pushed through a compulsory purchase order on the cafe which will now be demolished, though it will be at least a year before the bulldozers move in. Wilks was not available for comment.

DCI Smart believes the way forward is to introduce what he describes as 'joined-up thinking', ensuring his officers work alongside the probation service, Customs and the Immigration department to find ways of dealing with each new threat.

While the demise of the Black and White Cafe is unlikely to produce tears among the police force, locals are less sure. Christine Boulton, 50, works with the homeless in Bristol and has lived close to the cafe for 31 years. 'The cafe does have a negative effect on the community but then again, if you are looking for the local bad lads, sooner or later they will always end up there. If you shut it down, all you are going to do is move the problem. If it's not the Black and White, it will just become somewhere else.'

TWO DECADES OF TROUBLE

Some of the incidents at Black and White café recorded by police over 23 years many go un-reported:

In the 1950s and '60s immigrants from the West Indies were encouraged to come to Bristol to live and work, and many settled around the areas of St Paul's and Montpelier. Nightlife there took off in the Seventies, with blues clubs and all-night shebeens soon popping up (St Paul's festival is still an annual summer event, mellow and relaxed, like a smaller, less frenetic Notting Hill carnival). In 1980, following a police raid on the popular Black and White Café, the St Paul's riots erupted, the first of the decade's civil disturbances.

Question by : HP media center - windows XP freezes / windows recovery fails.?
HP m7680n
HP direct info: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00739902&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN
Windows XP Media Center (assumed patch 3, but unknown).
2x250GB SATA HDDs in an unknown RAID configuration.
The computer is 2.5-3 years old.

This computer has recently stopped working properly. Windows freezes up shortly after booting. I tried using the windows XP CD to recover the data, but it said something along the lines of HDD failure, and gave me the following error:
Stop: 0x0000007b (0xf78d2524, 0xc0000035, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

I then attempted logging into windows recovery in safe modem and attempted Windows Recovery from a previous working date from two weeks ago. It gave me the message that an attempt to write ove read-over memory failed refering to win32k.sys. I didn't take note of the following error code.

I then just attempted to start windows normally but I got the same error with code:
0x000000BE (0xBF801269, 0x13584021, 0xB9D1BA14, 0x0000000C)
Win32k.sys -address BF977557 base at BF800000

If you need any more information, I'd attempt to collect it. The computer is currently running from a Ubuntu LIVE CD. The computer also is not my own. I can assume it's some type of HDD failure, due to the age and use of no-name HDDs in RAID. I don't know what informatio is stored on the HDDs, so I don't intend to reformat unless needed. I simply want to upgrade to Vista, but I don't have a license to do this with at the moment and I'd rather stay legit on a computer I don't own. I can't get any information from the owner of the computer because she is currently hospitialized.
The computer would Vista just fine, as long as aero is turned off.

I've run check disk twice, and it came off perfect both times, apparantly!?

I can't even access safe mode anymore after attempting to use windows recovery.
Trying to use a XP live CD failed before even loading. Disk itself is fine, tried 2 different ones.

No new software.
A nasty lil virus possibly in the cache or something is what I'm thinking, and I don't like that thought.
Thank you.
I'll try updating the HDD controller drivers, and hopefully don't lose information upon the raid. I don't know if valuable information is on the raid or not sadly.

If it's a boot sector virus, I got a lot of research to do. From my quick research, it seems that most fixes are for systems that can still run, while this one cannot start at this moment (though I never did try a bios reset just realising). My PSU doesn't have 3 SATA pins either to support hokking up my HDD to the array to attempt a fix from my OS, but I can try a LIVE CD or USB boot (already have what I need for it anyways).


Best answer:

Answer by KirbyApple
If it's HDD failure, then you have to fix your Hard Drive, replace it!

And, if you want to upgrade to Vista.. im afraid the computer will not work well though you have new Hard Disk, because the computer is 2.5-3 years already. Vista requires a lot, as in high specs.
