If just repartitioned and didn't save anything on this drive you should recover almost everything from this drive. Try to scan this HDD with free tool as TestDisk (not very intuitive but very good) to restore original partitions, or with some recovery software, for example Runtime GetDataBack.

Alternatively - bring it to Pro ;) for this kind of recovery it shouldn't be too expensive.
