Just google something like 'data recovery tools' and you get a lot of useful
links.

Spend the money and buy Partition Magic or else spend the time and backup all
your files and then FDISK and re-install all the software enviornment from
scratch

Reinstalling won't get the partition back again. You need to create
the partition again.

You need a program like Partition Manager.

P.S. If you had any data on that partition, it can often be recovered
with programs like Easy Recovery, etc.

Good luck.


Have a nice one...

Too late! Once you have "written" to the hard drive, after erasing a
partiton, it is highly impossible to "recover" any "eraseed partitions".
