File scavenger is great, better than most because it gives you the names of the files (I've tried Data Back and many more), most others just give you numbers. Google for it and I'm sure they still have a demo version so you can find out what can be recovered from your HD. I used it after someone reformatted, lost all their pics(5 yrs worth) and document files. I recovered most of the doc files and over 5,000 pics (lots of doubles, etc) but my client was really thankfull because Dell support didn't tell her to back up any files, they just said use their recovery disc.....shows how much Dell support knows when helping the consumer!
Hopefully my advice will help you...Please post back with your results....thanks
