My computer has 2 hard disks. I installed new copy of windows 7 in previously "unallocated" space of one disk. But now I have lost all the files and folders of both disks. I can see only few folders which were in the "download" folder previously.
ANy suggestions please how to get my previous files.

Could be a Permissions issue. Right click on the Parent folder and go to properties. Then click on Security and click on the advanced button at the bottom. Then click on the Owner Tab, select the user you are using, check box to do the same for the child folders, and ok.

See if you can see them then. Also make sure they aren't hidden.
