Lost drive partitions after cd drive installation

After I installed a cd burner, one of my drive partitions disappeared.
I searched the net and it suggested that I change the nodrive value in the registry to 00 00 00 00. I did that, nothing changed, and so I restored my registry.
Then I heard that tweakui might help, and I tried that with no success. The physical drives were listed there, but there was no drive entry for my second partition.
Then I figured that the partition must have been deleted or something, so I used fdisk to see if the partition was still there. And it was.

So that partition must be there. Does anyone know how I could get my partition back? This is very frustrating!

Actually, I think the whole partition is lost now. I went back into fdisk to check if the logical drive was still there, and it says that there is no logical partition. Does this mean that the partition table is lost? How can i recover the partition?
