redo deleted partition

[Tester]

Hi there,
By mistake on my XP home PC I deleted a 250 GB drive NTFS partition
during XP set up, have not formatted it yet. It is not the system
drive, is the data drive D:, with personal data on it.
I remember there was one big partition and 1 MB ununsed space at the
end.
What tools do you recommend for recovery?
Thank you very much, T

Some time ago I ran some tests with Acronis RecoveryExpert. It was able to
restore deleted partitions.

TestDisk should be able to recover it.
