Hi geek9pm,

When you say "run simple utility" is there a particular utility to run before I adjust 
the partitions?

I will upgrade to SP2 tonight, but I'm not sure what the best plan of action is to 
give me the best chance to recover my data. Should I use partition magic to expand 
the partition, and then somehow repair my hard drive's index / table to get my file 
structure back?
