Boot sector recovery issue

[DeluzioNFX]

Hello,
I have a HD that was not accessible in windows. I installed Testdisk and determined the boot sector was bad.

Originally i had 2 partitions ( OS Partition / Data Partition ) with about 750gb/1tb used. When i ran testdisk i didn't do a deepsearch to locate the partitions but i repaired the boot sector by copying the backup boot sector. I'm not sure what i did wrong but now i have only one partition of 930gb, with 27gb used.. But the drive itself is empty when i access it. So my question is: where are all the files, and is there anyway of getting my 2 partitions back? When i ran testdisk again i was able to see both partitions after i selected the deeper search option, but unsure what to do at this point.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Boot from the windows disc and do a repair........

I doubt that will fix a missing / corrupt partition table. I expect it to say it can't find a windows install to repair.

try getdataback from runtime.org, will show you wahts recoverable before paying for it, plus its cheap

leave if youre trying to get data back

Do you have another drive of similar size? I think you should image your current drive bit by bit before making changing anything.
