Jordban Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 Quick format is the same as format, but it doesn't check for bad sectors. So I believe your files might have been formatted, but you should be able to get them back. I have a wonderful program you can use, I just used it to get some data back from "win 98 auto formatting" (don't ask). The program is by http://dtidata.com/, these people know there shit. It took me a while but I got ahold of the full version. I just uploaded the program to simplefolder.com/Recover_It_Al_ Professional.exe It's only like 400kb, and an amazing data recovery utility. Just wait for it to scan your whole hard drive and then browse around, select what you want and go to file -> copy to hard drive. Best of luck, Jordan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duelus Posted July 13, 2006 Author Share Posted July 13, 2006 Thanks, using it now I hope it works :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordban Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 Yeah, it scans the whole drive, so if anything is there it will find it. Only problem is it takes a while. Copying over the files is extremely fast though. I hope you blocked the programs attempts to access the internet with your firewall? Sorry I didn't warn you, nothing special, but i believe it checks with their site for something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sentinel Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 If that doesn't work, I've had great luck recovering pics from a suicidal SD card with http://www.x-ways.net/winhex obviously there are dozens of other capable programs too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingwray Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 Theres a program called Free Disk Recovery whick worked quite well when I used it. It only has one bug, it can't tell what an AMD processor is, my Athlon 64 3200+ is a 2GHz Pentium 2 according to it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordban Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 Did the program fix the problem? Or did you use something else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
