hi, I accidently deleted the primary dos partition, and created a new one in its place(i didnt do it by accidnet, i typed the wrong drive letter!)
is there any way i can get the content back from the old partition? I didnt get the option to make an undo disk when i did it either so i dont even have the backup up .dat file.
