HELP ASAP, Accidently formatted wrong drive!

[Time2Kill]

Does anybody know what program I need to use to recover my data?
I know there is a program that can do it, but does anyone know the name of it, and where I could get a copy?

I hate it when that happens. Didn't make a backup fore you formatted? Only make that mistake once, maybe twice. I wish I knew the program for ya. All I can suggest is a good coffee maker to keep you up tonight.

Holy crap that has got to suck as hell..

I do remember a program similar to the one you'r describing, but its name has slipped my mind, sorry. I'm sure one of our geniuses will help.

Wow!

I know Wow! doesn't make you feel better - but at least it will keep this topic near the top longer! Maybe long enough for some real help to arive. Good luck!

IBM has a data recovery program at their sight, I beleive you have to send the drive in and it's expensive.

this site has a really cool data recover program

The CIA has some great programs used for data recovery... unfortunatly it is not available to the public yet

PowerQuest Lost and Found might work also

OnTrack Easy Recovery worked great for me...although I stopped myself after an fdisk which isn't nearly as bad as a format. Best of luck.

Norton Utilities has an unformat program.

Good luck.
