Stupid question perhaps, Did you empty your recycle bin, if not, you can copy them back to where tey belong from in winNT.
Else, install windows over the the one that isn't working anymore. but DON'T format the partition. Just installin OVER the old one. Normally you should be able to run all your programs that you had before, no data will be lost. There's one thing, I've noticed that when you install windows over an old-one, you will probably get a less stable windows.
Good luck
