| hi. last night my windows got error and i tried to install ubuntu(in order to save my files), but the installation failed due to lack of space(got stuck at 33%). I decided to restart my pc and i got "error loading operating system".
I think i'm getting this error because partition failed my HDD(got stuck at 33%)..Can i remove this failed partition from my PC ?
Now i dont know what to do....
I dont want to lose my files. please help | |

| Installing an OS on top of another one is obviously going to cause lost/damaged files....
Remove that drive and hook it up as a slave in a working machine to see what if anything is salvageable. | |

| partition failed my HDD? Partitioning wipes out as many/more files even more effectively than formatting does... Try on this website - Slave Drive Instructions | |

| If you had not defragged your drive in more then 2 weeks before the system restore a lot of the files will be corrupted due to file fragmentation | |
