I can mount the partition in Fedora and everything looks fine. fdisk shows the same partition table as on the old drive - apart from the increase in size of sda1 and sda6. However, if I boot from the WinXP CD and try to recover the system it says no hard drives detected. As the HDD appears in the BIOS and obviously works to let me boot Fedora I'm guessing it just means that it can't see the NTFS partition. This does maybe mean now that GRUB is fine (as Fedora boots) and the problem is with the NTFS partition. Anyone got any suggestions?
