data recovery after corrupted mbr in Win XP prof

by ddtusa Apr 28, 2004 10:13AM PDT

I am running Win XP Professional w/ all current updates and service packs on my master hdd. I defraged my secondary slave hdd and ended up corupting my master boot record on the secondary drive. It now shows up as an unformatted drive. How do I recover from this without losing my data on the drive?
