So I had to re-install Windows 7 and lost everything that I had.
Time to start all over again. This time I'm going to save everything online to multiple online accounts incase this should ever happen again. Obviously I'm not happy right now. However, hopefully a fresh restart will allow me to be better and more careful with what I'm doing.
Ouch... I would've recommended, putting your harddrive into a second computer (with a working Windows installation), and transfer files off the harddrive if possible. The 2nd computer would be able to run no problem, as long as you make sure it boots up the Windows that is on the primary harddrive (i.e not your own harddrive). Sadly, it seems this is no longer possible since you already went ahead and reformatted/installed Windows onto the harddrive.
For future problems like these, you should safeguard yourself by having 2 separate partitions (one primary for Windows, one secondary for "everything else"). Would help if you need to format the primary Windows partition, since all the files would remain intact on the secondary partition.
