Unhappy Hard Drive failure - HELP!

Ok, i have two drives, one with a few windows partitions, one with some data partitions.

I recently reinstalled windows, deleted the current c, formatted it and installed XP Pro. As soon as I did that, the second hard disk no longer shows anything, it has no drive letter and disk management shows it as unallocated space (as does partition magic when i boot that from floppy, so not a windows error).

Not sure what the next step is, i need the data off formost, as it has all my work and photos on (included important ones of a wedding i recently did). I have tried a disk recovery program, bit it requires a drive letter to select the disk!!

Any help would be much appreciated,

Pete
