On one occassion when trying to format an NTFS partition for windows on a
Harddrive that already had a boot partition, / partition, windows sytem
partition, etc. Windows deleted some working partitions in a fit on me.

http://www.cgsecurity.org/index.html?testdisk.html
Got me out of that problem, by giving me the exact details required to recreate
the various partitions via fdisk and a rescue CD.
