TEch advice needed - Hard Drive installation

I actually figured what was wrong when using disc recovery software.
As it was a network drive and had reserved partitions for device operation, it was set up for a unix/linux system. That explains why when I first plugged the drive into my PC and before I fiddled with the partitions XP would not access the partitions it saw. I've run recovery software and it sees lots of files but the process takes ages.
