Ok, got the partition back, I practically panicked for a while, and made a post before even thinking, anyhow, a simple idea did the job, since I deleted a partition, I thought if I restore the partition table it should be fine, now I already knew what the partition was, so the only thing I had to do was boot into Linux and edit the partition table(since windows cant do it by itself, it only allows format), but the problem was the my Linux did not recognize my RAID array (I just set up my array recently so I was gonna take my time getting Linux on it too), anyhow, I got a partition table editing tool for windows from a friend and restored the partition, but the tool deleted my system partition on RAID array (afterall it's a windows tool ), anyhow I am least concerned about my system partition, unlike others, as I keep almost nothing there, not even "My Documents".
