Hunt down a utility called testdisk, the one I used was 6.9. I had lost my partition table buggering about one day, and testdisk sorted it out in seconds.

Ouch, sounds nasty. I shagged mine by having a dual boot config over two drives, and setting the pagefile of my Vista on the XP disc, which didn't work, LOL. Yours sounds very complicated, good luck!
