Hi Paras.

AFAIK disks don't get partitioned out of the blue.

They need some sort of intervention to make this happen.

What have you done just before this happened?

Did you try to do an installation of Linux, or something 
else?

Also, is it possible for a trojan program to do this to your 
HDD?

Kind Regards,
