Primary partition - disappeared!

I used Partition Magic 6, and the C: I can see is the extended partition (originally D  .Where and why has the primary partition disappeared? If I try to recreate a C: primary partition will I lose all the data? I don't know how big the partition were. Is there some other way of doing it? Or should I reformat the drive (nothing critical on it - and was buggy) and reinstall everything? -- Susan
