Help!!! I was upgrading my dell 531s by putting in a 2 Tb drive and some how I made a mistake and caused an I/O error to my existing 160Gb drive. I got the 2Tb drive working but with the 160Gb plugged it it will not boot up. the BIOS sees them both but I can not get it to boot up unless I unplug the 160gb. Is there a program out there to allow me to fix that drive long enough to get the data off of it? Is seems that it needs to be something that works on the DOS level (like Hirams?) Help

Have you got your 2TB set as a slave drive? If both are set as primary it may be the cause
