I have a Western Digital external harddrive that was working fine and has apx. 70gb of data on it. After repeated Vista crashes, I reinstalled Vista and now the external harddrive is not appearing in "My Computer." When I look in Disk Management, it is listed as "Unallocated" with the black (as opposed to blue) bar and 74.8 gb (it is an 80gb device).

What can I do to recover the data from this drive?

Thanks so much for any help you can provide.
