Do a Google for "disk recovery" and "partition recovery" and
you should get some hits. I highly suggest that you contact
Drive Savers since they are the professional experts on this
sort of thing. They have some free FAQ and will give some
free advice by email/phone to see whether you are are
candidate for their service or if self-help will fix your
problem.
