More info?)
Without prohibitively expensive forensic services that could recover this
information (MIT has an ongoing project also in their comp science Ph.D.
program as do many universities that can recover from damaged formatted HDs
even off the edge of the HD) you probably can't.
You can always download a free trial of Exec Soft's Undelete at
www.undelete.com --they make the watered down defragger that MSFT chose to
ship with Windows XP and see what happens but that is usually in the context
of not formatting and depends like most recovery on how extensively you've
over-written the HD.
Kelly recommends a program in her A-Z that has this link that I can't make
work any longer but I believe it has the same context as Exec Soft's
undelete:
