partitions there was a delay when I tried to delete the 4gb partition
and without seeing what I'm doing, I accidently deleted the 10gb...
 
Please give me some hope and tell me there is a way to bring it back...
 
 
Thanks.

Ouch! Pay lots of money to a data recovery spe[censored]t if the data is that important, otherwise I'd say your pretty screwed.

If all you have done is delete the partition, then re-creating the partition exactly the same as it was before (ie. same size, same position on disk) will normally succeed in restoring it with all the data intact.

Thanks.
 
I suggest you use Partition Table Doctor to resolve your
problem.The software provides very useful functions:
Backup partition table, Restore partition table, Rebuild
partition table, undelete partition, Fix boot sector,
rebuild mbr,etc.
 
First thing I recommend you download the demo version of
Partition Table Doctor.( http://www.ptdd.com/download.htm )
 
Run the program and select "Rebuild Partition Table",
then choose "Interactive" mode.
