    I don't think it would be possible to restore it now since you have overwritten it!

    If i'm wrong someone else should post.

    sorry

    Im with Sniper... As far as I know, you can't "restore" information that is already lost.

    I hate to say it, but there's no easy way to restore a lost partition, especially since it's been overwritten. Your data in all probability is history. There are ways to recover some data, but it's always lossy and time consuming. I hope you have backups. :(

    If the data is important enough, there are always data recovery services. They're businesses dedicated to recovering critical data. This option is only for the most critical of data though, as such services are extremely expensive and usually not worth the trouble.
