Sorry for the delay in answering...

Acronis has a program called RecoveryExpert.
Since you seem to have only UN-allocated space now(?),
it "should" go in and re-construct what you "got rid of"...

You might need to know the (approx.) sizes and locations of
the valid partitions that you want to recover - since it sometimes
gives "multiple choices" of former partitions and these (by
definition) will almost always overlap, which is NOT allowed
(of course...)

The bad news is, I do not believe the program is available
separately anymore. It was so small, they used to give it away
free as a perk to buy other programs, but eventually rolled it
into a suite...

I have used Norton Utilities to recover partitions too, (a VERY
long time ago).  Not sure they still support that part of their
suite...
