I plugged the HDD back in to test it out. At first, windows saw the drive, but was still inaccessible (no information on capacity, etc.) Then windows automatically installed some disk driver, and ask me to restart, but I pressed later.

Used the GetDataBack program, it saw the drive, but when I try to recover, it says I/O Error Unknown reading sector 0. So I went to restart my computer and now the drive disappeared. Can't be seen with any program. Did a system restore and still nothing.

Tried using Ubuntu, but didn't work either. How the hell does a driver cause my drive to suddenly disappear?
