Hello. I have a question. Is there a way to block or prevent a hard drive and/or partition from getting formatted by accident? ..especially if you have data that you never want to getting wipped off? This saved data that I would not want to get deleted would be on a non-system hard drive, on the first partition of a two partition hard drive. Either a setting or configuration within Windows XP and Windows Vista to block or prevent reformating a hard drive or specific partition? I have Windows XP Home and Windows Vista Ultimate if that matters. ...or is there 3rd party software that you can recommend that can prevent or block formatting a hard drive or parition? Is it possible through some changes through the System Registry to block formatting with specific hard drives in one's computer or specific partition available on both operating systems? What are the steps? Please reply with solutions and/or links to solutions. Thank you!
