Solve : hard drive data not showing up?

Answer»

i have a hard drive that i ACCIDENTALLY deleted the partition off of but i know the data is still there how can i retrieve it i have not formated the drive or done any thing to it after i realized what i had done
PLEASE HELP! and i will be enternaly gratefulCan you explain exactly what's happened. Give DETAILS of how and which partition was deleted and where the needed data actually is.If you deleted the WHOLE partition, the data is gone (unless perhaps you send it to a recovery expert). Why do you think it is still there?well i know it is not actually gone because i was in windows setup in DOS and deleted the windows off the hard drive so it can't be gone because information is never gone until it is written over or formatted (which i haven't done by the way)Have you written anything to this partition since?
Do you have another hard drive or partition to copy the recovered data to?no to the first and yes to the second

But you deleted the partition? How did you do this? That can make all the diference.i was in WINDOW setup in dos and it showed both my hardrives i scrolled down to my e drive and hit delete partition and it blinked and said it was gone but it didn't spend like 20 minutes deleting everthingHow valuable is this LOST data? How much are you prepared to pay to retrieve it?For your purposes it is truly gone.
