if a database was deleted from a PC, could i restore my pc to a date prior to deletion of said DB, and recover it?

No, system restore does not touch your data, otherwise, you would lose all changes made since - all files created and changed.

Theoreticallly, yes. If your Windows 7 uses the backup feature, and creates (weekly/monthly) backups of the ENTIRE HARDDISK.

It's not possible to use the system restore feature (going back to a 'restore point') though, as this will only change the Windows files/installation.... and not magically also other installed programs.

On which site(s) did you play all your hands?
You can always email PokerStars/PartyPoker/FullTilt and request the handhistories for every game you've ever played to re-create your database, reimporting the hands.
