Hi

I need to get data off a Hard drive giving me the following error:
Error mounting /dev/sdb2 at /media/queery/765262F75262BB8D: Command-line
`mount -t "ntfs" -o
"uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000,dmask=0077,fmask=0177"
"/dev/sdb2" "/media/queery/765262F75262BB8D"' exited with non-zero exit
status 12: NTFS signature is missing.
Failed to mount '/dev/sdb2': Invalid argument
The device '/dev/sdb2' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS.
Maybe the wrong device is used? Or the whole disk instead of a
partition (e.g. /dev/sda, not /dev/sda1)? Or the other way around?

It's also showing 2 partitions while in windows it shows 1. any ideas how
to fix it?
