Hard drive recovery

[sectionseven]

I was repartitioning a hard drive, and the comp crashed.. the partition is tottaly messed up but to my knowledge the data should still be intact, is there any way to fix this partition? i simply need to back up the files. Unfortunatly I did not have the forward thinking to backup my files before i repartitioned. I was simply splitting a 40 gig h/d intoa 30 and a 10 and I did not forsee it crashing part way through... please help

Hi sectionseven ,
I haven't been looking at this forum for a long time. But today I decided to look and I realized your message. If you didn't still do anything, try to use some recovery programs. While the partitioning program was working, it was moving files from somewhere to other. There may be data still on the disk's surface, so programs like "GetDataBack", "Tiramisu" can recover these files from disk's surface even if there is no partition defined.. Of course you sould install one of these programs on another PC and boot from it.
