Default How to recover unallocated partition ?

Hi all, yesterday when I used Acronis True Image to restore my primary partition, my computer suddenly rebooted. After finishing restore, one of my partitions was unallocated. I tried to used Acronis Disk Director Suite but wasn't success, it can't find any partition in unallocated drive. Recover My Files also can't see unallocated partition, so I can't search on it. I want to get data on my lost partition back, what should I do ? Thanks for your help.

Recover My Files can see the physical drive.

If you know where the partition starts then you can start the search at this location by first clicking on the OPTIONS button and putting a tick in the box for "prompt for start cluster....".

What If you don't know where the partition starts and ends? How can you find that mysterious end and beginning? Any help will be appreciated :-)

Make sure you have the latest version of Recover My Files available from http://www.recovermyfiles.com, or click on this link http://download.getdata.com/RecoverMyFiles-Setup.exe

Run a "Complete Format Recover" search on the physical drive. Search ONLY for the default selected files types.

Recover My Files should find and display all partitions found on the drive (both active and missing) in "Folder View" of the search results window. You must save the files found to another drive.

I hope this helps.
