No DON'T do this yet... we may be able to get it back... Grav!ty has a method that can be used to fix this so don't hurry into to it
That would be good to know as I usually slash and burn, having proper backups of course and having my drive partitioned from the start. I have never lost a byte to software issues. Good luck.

Either way, you ended up installing over the top of XP; not saying you did this accidentally or purposely, just that it happened. If you are comfortable with working with your computer in "recovery mode" type of operation, let us know, as there is sort of a "fix" for this, but it doesn't work for everyone.
