Easeus Data Recovery Wizard is an excellent tool that you might want to consider.

File and data recovery software to unformat, undelete files. Recover deleted files and recover formatted disk or corrupt drives - EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard.

Piriform's Recuva is another good data recovery utility.

Have you tried Recuva - suggested by seavixen32 in a post above ?

The other Recovery software you can try is PhotoRec. http://www.sevenforums.com/software/193467-guide-using-photorec-recovery-software.html

Contrary to what the title suggests, PhotoRec can recover most types of files and not only media files.

It is absolutely safe to use even by beginners, since it does not write anything to the drive being recovered.

You may also look into using Test Disk. http://www.sevenforums.com/software/190430-regain-lost-drive-using-test-disk-illustrated-guide.html

Hold it!

If you deleted a partition it can be undeleted using the very tool you were using, PW "Partition Recovery Wizard." This has never failed to work in hundreds of times we have helped others use it here.

Where you got hung up is determining which HD segment to choose to recover that doesn't require deleting another one to recover it. This takes very close study and our help using Screen Shots.

Run it again now and post up the results for us to see. Use the installed PW version with both HD's connected. Post up also a screenshot you take now showing the full Drive map and listings. Tell us exactly what and where you deleted the partition.

Out of curiousity, how do you Delete a full HD partition accidentally?

definitely its curious to know ... i dont know whether to call it accident or deliberate ...
in my previous thread u suggested me a software(mint partition tool) to get rid of that problem ... today after competing my work .. i am almost ready to shutdown my netbook all of a sudden i saw a icon of that s/w (that day i used only i used only functions as u gudied) ...its new s/w for me , now the play stated ...i am testing all function line by line ... i have checked delete also later all i applied to perform the function ..... now the actual disaster happen ... gone!! complete drive wiped off ...

so i posted its accidentally deleted ...

If you used PW to successfully complete steps for another problem, why would you open it later to play around with it without any steps given to complete? Unless you know what you are doing, or ask, you are almost certain to mess up your computer.

Post a screenshot of the Disk Management drive map showing all partitions.

Then run Partition Recovery Wizard, when it completes post up a screenshot showing everything it finds.

THen click Next to see what it says is conflicting so we can help you sort it before Finishing Recovery.

You were really lucky. It cannot be emphasized enough that one should ALWAYS make images of partitions that you plan to manipulate. I lost partitions (a whole drive worth) in the past too (because of my mistake when using PW). But, of course, I had my images and it was easy to rebuild the drive.
