You should have kept two copies of all your data - - one copy on the Dell hard drive and another copy on a completely separate hard drive (external). Try partition recovery software or file recovery software:
Partition recovery: http://www.easeus.com/partition-rec...
File recovery: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/filer...
PM 8 may also have a method to undo what was done. You may want to check their help files. You may also be able to perform a WinXP repair install.
You learned a couple of valuable lessons: 1. always have more than one backup of important files
2. NEVER perform an important operation such as repartitioning or a BIOS flash when using battery power
