I have a seagate 320gb that has some data on it that i wish to keep however windows wishes me to format my hard drive before i can use it. I have a lot of data i don't wish to lose so i was wondering if there was a tool to help me recover my data. I have tried Easeues Data Recovery and that didn't help at all. Windows is being a pain in my butt because i have a tool for partitioning it and it can read the hard drive and says it is still formatted as ntfs.
Spoiler text here.

You didn't have to make the same topic twice. Just put in spoilers.
