richcornucopia Posted December 17, 2005 CID Share Posted December 17, 2005 Crap! I just reformatted on of my hardrives without backing up so very important files. Its a fresh windows xp ntfs install, I did quick format. These are memories that I can never get back, so is there any program that can retrieve them for me?

resopalrabotnick Posted December 18, 2005 CID Share Posted December 18, 2005 if they are important enough to you (pricewise) then there is a bunch of data recovery companies out there. a quickformatted drive should be easy pickings for em. they usually can even recover drives recovered from burnt out comps and stuff. does anyone you know work at cia, nsa or fbi? they can do that on their lunch break...
