this might not work but this as one way to recover a formated hd. plug the drive into the slave ide on you computer then run command/dos and put in UNFORMAT X: X is your drive probly g:
thanks for the info jenko...
since the HD is format with a different file system,
i hope it will work...

If you formatted a windoze drive by mistake, you can TRY to unformat it with typical tools, but as the partition table is wiped by te ps2 format, it's incredibly difficult to replace it. you will most likely have to use a data recovery utility and read the disc raw to get your data back. fortunately thre are available ones that are free t at least try.
_zaphod_, that is what i am looking for now.
hopefully i can find one that really does the job...
i lost 4 PS2 games, and about 30GB of animes, and wedding
photos...:(

I've had pretty good results with a program called Restorer 2000. There is a free demo available on the following website which should at least give you an idea whether it will work or not.

thanks redbeard, i had little luck with O&ODiskRecovery...
:(
some update, after tried various data recover tools and none of them
worked, i just re-formated the HD, lesson learned.
thanks everyone for the info.
