Recovering partition after freshly installed windows 7

#1 Post by iamnikkei96 »

I was trying to fresh install windows 7 on installation menu & tried to use diskpart but mistakenly cleaned whole drive not the c partition. Now the windows 7 is installed on single drive without any partitions. I jave not installed not one software or driver on it yet so the overlapping problem doesn't happen. How do I recover those lost 3 partitions. I tried photorec but it's not renaming files. How do i get rid few of the files of which I recovered. Will deleting them cause overlapping?
