Q: Bootcamp missing after resizing manually

I know i have seen many threads, discussions about this kind of problem. Sorry if this is posted in here if its the wrong place I mean.

Well I did some reading and wasnt so sure about going further than what I've seen was successful for others (scared to damage or lose any files on my bootcamp).

 

I did resize it once, and it was successful, but this time it just suddenly turned to a disk0s4 and has an amount of the very first partition I had for the bootcamp (before resizing it successfully)

 

Thing is I'm not that confident without proper help or guide in repairing and any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm online this very moment and day I just want to wrap this up as I won't be able to sleep knowing that my sister's thesis report are in that bootcamp.

 

Here is so far what i have done.

 

gpt show: disk0: mediasize=500107862016; sectorsize=512; blocks=976773168

gpt show: disk0: Suspicious MBR at sector 0

    What version of Windows are you running?

     

    Does the Bootcamp volume show up in finder?

     

    Under Applications -> Utilities, there is a Console which should be looked at for any bootcamp volume entries.

    The name DISK0S4 is not that important. It can be called anything. DU allows it to be renamed. It is a DOS FAT partition. If you try to mount it using DU's mount option, do you get an error message?

    Mounting it doesn't give any error, but it just won't mount. this is the error i get when i verify disk0s4

    Do not repair this disk0s4 using DU, it causes untold misery.

     

    Can you use Testdisk and extract data or look at the directories?

     

    Please take a look at this... http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk_Step_By_Step

    The harddisk (500 GB / 465 GiB) seems too small! (< 600 GB / 559 GiB)

    Check the harddisk size: HD jumpers settings, BIOS detection...

     

     

    The following partitions can't be recovered:

    Try looking into this partition and see if you can see your files.

    Yes, Deeper Search should work. The 'p' option will list contents of the chosen partition.
