That can dig you out of pretty big hole but the more you use your computer before undeleting the files the less you can recover. Ideally you should hit the kill button immediately that you realise you have deleted wanted files and reboot using the Norton CD to minimise overwriting by windows. Commercial data recovery companies can do better but it costs a bucketload of cash. The theory is fine but unless you act fast you lose quite a lot of data. If you have defragged, most if not all will be gone. I hope your enquiry is academic only! Cheers Billy 8-{)	Guest (0)

MS Diskprobe and DriveMap as well as NDD and Diskedit for NTFS - either basic disk (Win2k) or file system version 1.2 (WinNT4.0). Diskprobe and DriveMap are done in WinNT, the others via DOS. I'm not aware of being able to recover data from dynamic disks (Win2k) - ideally data recovery from this is via a Raid with parity. Another option to use - this time in Windows - is Ontrack's Easy Recovery Pro.	Guest (0)
