assuming that the partiton is 'hidden' as you say, you likely just need to re-assign a drive letter to it.

right click on "(my) computer", select "manage", in left pane highlight "disk management", right click on you lost partition in right pane, select "change drive letter", and give it a drive letter.

if that doesn't do it then it's more than just a hidden partition, could be the drive was formatted or failed.

is the physical drive listed in drive manager? if not then you got a failed or improperly attached drive. if so but it's black and listed as being unused or empty then the partition has been deleted.

Hi, if your partition was just change the drive letter to "None" and it shows hidden, you could do what "branden" had said, but if your partition was hidden by some partition software, you could only use other partition software to unhidden it.
