O osin macrumors 6502 Aug 20, 2008 #5 You may search google for some software which recovers deleted partitions and files. This could help at least with some important files...

Palad1 macrumors 6502a Aug 20, 2008 #7 Linux Livecd may help Hello, You may use a live cd and some linux tomfoolery to recover some data but... don't have much hope. Did the partition get reformated? Good luck. Here's a starting point http://raviratlami1.blogspot.com/2008/06/how-to-recover-corrupted-ntfs-data.html I am pretty sure there are linux tools to do what you are trying to do, but I'm at a loss when it comes to naming them. Good luck, PS: Buy flowers.
