Ive just changed my motherboard today, and have clean installed windows8. However the system detected both drives in bios and in disk management but not the D drive which contained a very sensitive data on it. I cannot afford to lose the data in D drive so re-format is out of the question. What can i do?

See if it is getting detected by the BIOS - if it is follow Levent's steps.

If it is not see if plugging it into another computer works. if that doesn't work take it to a data recovery place or try and follow some guides of how you can do it yourself.

like it's tickled easily?

the data has really unstable emotions?

 

what do people mean by "sensitive?". What you really mean is "there is sh!t there i don't want to lose!"

We can't Benchmark like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to shove more GPUs in your computer. Like the time I needed to NV-Link, because I needed a higher HeavenBench score, so I did an SLI, which is what they called NV-Link back in the day. So, I decided to put two GPUs in my computer, which was the style at the time. Now, to add another GPU to your computer, costs a new PSU. Now in those days PSUs said OCZ on them, "Gimme 750W OCZs for an SLI" you'd say. Now where were we? Oh yeah, the important thing was that I had two GPUs in my rig, which was the style at the time! They didn't have RGB PSUs at the time, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big green ones.

i know what it eans, but i just feel like it's an inaccurate term. "personal information" is more accurate. SSNs, credit cards, identity info, and such.
