i had the same problem at one time, i was about to lose all work and source for a medal of honor mod. i booted up linux with a recovery cd, and then ftp'ed the stuff to my xbox. im sure you could ftp it to anything though.

When my hdd got borked all I did was a reboot and then windows didnt find my HDD, then when i tried to access the HDD all it wanted was to fomrat it :\. So i took out the HDD and placed it in a freinds computer and then we used Easy recovery in it and i got back about 80% of all my webpages and just about all my mapping stuff (expect for all my RMFs bye bye de_fender)

So my advise is, get the files before its too late.

when EVERYTHING is fucked, just follow these easy steps

-turn off your computer (no hitting!!)

-take out your harddrive

-beat the shit out of your little brother so you can use his computer

-Set you harddrive to SLAVE, insert into his computer

-Boot his shitty computer up, copy all the files you need over to his harddrive (threatening to beat the crap out of him again if he tampers with it)

-Format your own harddrive

-Take the your formated drive back into your computer, now as MASTER

-Boot up with a win98, "start the computer with cd-rom" then take out the win98 cd, insert the winxp one, go into X:\I386\, and type WINNT... WHABANG!

-Follow the installation crappy winxp innstal.. (always use a craxed key, its leik... PAY FOR WINXP? AHAHHAHAHA)

:P:P

This is only if everything fux... (using NTFS) If you use something else, and can reach dos somewhere, you dont need to beat the crap out of your brother...

i recently had computer problems, and had to reinstall windows. the recovery console didn't work for me. when i re-installed windows, my C drive was formatted. Good thing all my mapping stuff is on my D: drive.
