because macdrive refuses to work on win 7, and i needed to assign a drive letter to the disk, it was recommended in another thread, but the system haulted and crashed while i was trying to install it.
there is no safe mode it just hangs its like the partition has disappeared
UPDATE
seems the partition is unrecoverable, ive tried several different kinds of rescue programs from dos, but nothing has worked yet, i can see the partition as unallocated space but cant do anything with it, any suggestions
