    Your such a thanks button tart (I even noticed you had it in your signature at one point). He wrote thanks. No one should be expected to hit the thanks button as long as the've acknowledged the help given.

    how long after wiping your computer would stuff like this work??

    I lost lots and lots of photos (no, not pr0n) in 2003/4ish.....

    I'd given up any hope......

    (I wiped teh HDD and started afresh, but i've filled the HDD up since then)
  • Not tooooo likely!

    Give it a try though, no harm huh!?

    well, was worth a shot..... wish i'd thought about it earlier....

    suppose it's what happens when you buy a copy of windows xp from a market for £4!

    (lost about 12 mo worth of photos....goddamit!)

    you'd be surprised, its all about where new data is written to the hdd.

    i recovered data off a hdd last month, and some of the stuff on there was at least 12 months old.

    give it a shot. :j
