U can use live cd even ubuntu will do or anything that gives you grub ; Then go to a terminal(CTL+ALT+Fn+1)
sudo grub
root (hd?,?) # use 'sudo fdisk -l' to locate ur linux partion,gives u answers to ? ? part;
find /boot/grub/stage1
setup (hd0)
quit
if you didnt format the debian partition, just use the install dvd and reinstall the boot loader only, you just go through the whole process, but dont re-install the OS, or format the disks. the boot loader is usually amongst the last steps just after installing packages.

Recently I formatted my machine which was running windows and Debian. I reinstalled but now
I can't access the Debian. Is there a way I can restore? Skunks for help.
