Thanks to the Easy Recovery utility sent to me by Busby, I was able to recover roughly 85% of the data I lost. I ran every search mode the program offered, but was still unable to recover my coveted journal file... most probably the file that will agonize me the most... Thanks for your help, everyone. I really appreciate it. - Grimesby

I did something extremely stupid today. I keep a single folder containing all the Word documents I ever created. This folder contains private journals, diaries, school assignments, short stories, etc. etc. that run back nearly five years. This folder I stupidly kept under the /WINNT directory (I am running Windows 2000 Pro with a FAT32 file system). To fix what I suspected to be a bad install base of Win2k, I uninstalled the Win2k Service pack and proceeded to reinstall Win2k without a hard drive reformat. This erased the entire WINNT folder including my document folder. Is there any way to recover my data? I know I'm not using NTFS, so it looks grim. But that folder contains thousands of hours of work and is literally a huge chunk of my life. I am one desperate man. My head literally swam when I realized my mistake. Is there any program, anything at all, I can use to recover my data? Please help, someone, anyone. - Grimesby, one desperate guy
