Use the trial version of Ontrack Easy Recovery to see if there are files you can recover - http://www.ontrack.com/include/docu...nload.ontrack.com/freedownloads/erdrt_610.exe

Trial will only let you find files - you cant recover without paying for the product. The lite version is about £40 I believe.

Well at first i was going to shoot you for linking me to that program I double clicked install and my pc rebooted.... and every time i got into windows after that it rebooted, so i reinstalled windows..... but somehow when i got back in the new windows all my files had come back.... well most of them a few were missing and a few were corupt but on the whole i feel like kissing you cuz you inadvertantly by linkin me to that fixed my pc for free THANK YOU!!!

Oh well, glad it's sorted.

Did you by any chance choose to do a 'repair existing installation' during the reinstall?

Nope dident even install on that disk.... Im a bit unsure why a few files are missing... i made a load of avatars the night before it happend and they have all vanished but anything before that date is there..... and mozzilla bookmarks had corupted but a backup i had sorted that

do a google for "active undelete" makes a good job of recovering data even off partitions that have been scrambled to high heaven and even deleted.

I've had favourable results just using a knoppix cd in the past to get data off drives that refuse to mount in windows.

never give up.
