Is it possible to recover an erased partition?

Recommended Posts

First of all I'm an idiot and a very desparate guy...

I have two h.d.s, one 4gb and one 10gb, I started reinstalling win2kpro on the 4gb which is the primary active disk but during the text part of the installtion, the part when you create and delete

partitions there was a delay when I tried to delete the 4gb partition

and without seeing what I'm doing, I accidently deleted the 10gb...

 

Please give me some hope and tell me there is a way to bring it back...

 

 

Thanks.

Ouch! Pay lots of money to a data recovery spe[censored]t if the data is that important, otherwise I'd say your pretty screwed.

Another option is to use PartitionMagic which I did and hell...I'm going to buy it!

 

It was a very stressful day...I think I'm going to take a nap...

If all you have done is delete the partition, then re-creating the partition exactly the same as it was before (ie. same size, same position on disk) will normally succeed in restoring it with all the data intact.

Buy software if you use it....Succesfuly.

I suggest you use Partition Table Doctor to resolve your

problem.The software provides very useful functions:

Backup partition table, Restore partition table, Rebuild

partition table, undelete partition, Fix boot sector,

rebuild mbr,etc.

 

First thing I recommend you download the demo version of

Partition Table Doctor.( http://www.ptdd.com/download.htm )

 

Run the program and select "Rebuild Partition Table",

then choose "Interactive" mode.
