It was having many much important datas and many things which i really need. I need to get back the partition. Is there any way i can do that ? Please help me friends.

Don't worry. it is possible to restore the partition back, but you might be careful while deleting any partition. To restore the deleted partition you need a program called TestDisk. Its a freeware and a powerful data recovery tool. It is designed for the same problem that you have faced, that is to recover deleted partition. You can even use this app for making non-booting disks bootable again and the most interesting thing is you can run it from even a Floppy / CD or even from a Pendrive or USB drive. A really useful technique needed particularly in this kind of situation.

Once get downloaded and installed Testdisk, you can confirm the action with Enter key, and to navigate you need the arrow keys. After the search has been started, TestDisk will show the information as Cyclinders, Heads and Sectors in the size of MB. Remember that the first character is very crucial, like

"*" represent primary and active as boot partition

"P" represent Primary but not bootable

" L " represent the logical Drive

" D " denotes that the partition has been deleted.

So what you have to do is select the deleted partition and place it on " P " and save with " Write ". Thats it... You got back your deleted partition.

TestDisk works for these operating systems:-

1. DOS (either real or in a Windows 9x DOS-box),
2. Windows (NT4, 2000, XP, 2003, Vista),
3. Linux,
4. FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD,
5. SunOS and
6. MacOS

TestDisk features:

1. Fix partition table, recover deleted partition
2. Recover FAT32 boot sector from its backup
3. Rebuild FAT12/FAT16/FAT32 boot sector
4. Fix FAT tables
5. Rebuild NTFS boot sector
6. Recover NTFS boot sector from its backup
7. Fix MFT using MFT mirror
8. Locate ext2/ext3 Backup SuperBlock
