rikky 0 Posted June 9, 2004 Hi, A disk on our PC system, has accidently been reformatted for W2K. No new video has been written on it. Is there any (freeare) solution to regain the info which was initially on the disk? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thomas 0 Posted June 9, 2004 No good freeware ones, you'll have to pay for software. There is some pretty good software for recovering files, but it's not cheap (between $40-$120). There are also companies that specialize in drive recovery but they are very expensive. ($500 to Second Morgage depending on what you did) But you'll have some problems. Video files don't handle corruption very well. And with any kind of recovery, there is a strong chance that large files will get corrupted to some degree.
