dear friend if you format your hard drive and reinstall it with a newer one software then there is no chance to recover your data. mine a dvice is that always take your backup in 1 or 2 dvd,s

well, it would be hard to back up all the data that i have, 2 dvd's are not enough, nor 10.:)

There are a few ways to get back that information and one of the ways is to run a tool to basically recover the data, like the one at: http://www.runtime.org/downloads.htm Hope that helps you out.
