I dont know what happened, but Norton Antivirus asked me if I wanted to innoculate the disk since it it had changed and i said yes. I have 2 40 GBs harddisk, partitioned into 2 each, so C D E F.

When I boot now, windows does not start and I cant read C drive, getting the message - "Invalid Media ype Reading Drive C"

The harddisk is physically alright since its new, and its other partition is reading alrigth. I have important information on this partition and need it. What might be the error?

I read about the fdisk /mbr command that will rewrite the master boot record? Can I use it without losing any data?
