Solve : How to recover a unallocated hard drive?

Answer»

Some how I've ended up with a unallocated hard drive...40 gig.
At the moment IM using a “Ubuntu Live CD”, which has “Gnome” partition editor.
As at the moment when I try too boot from the harddrive it tells me “ no file system present”. ( that being Windows XP Pro), which I have on the hard drive...I was trying to install “Ubuntu”.
What I WOULD like to know is:
Can I restore the unallocated hard drive to “active” to a primary hard drive, so it boots on starting the laptop, as Im sure the files are still on their.
Can I USE the create a new partition, unformatted using the Gnome editor, or should I create it using the “ntfs” file system.
Please help,,,as I know Ive made a sill mistake...thanksSounds like your Ubuntu install WENT south and trashed the master boot record. Where's Rob when you need him
