There are a number of data recovery programs you can use. SOme of them are free. One such is PC Inspector file recovery. But there are plenty of others out there to try.
Good luck

don't use the computer if at all possible as it may overwrite the old files (deleted) on the HD. Actually it does not delete them it changes the first letter of the name of the file in the index to a ? character that then tells the OS it can use that space.
as above there are plenty of recovery programs available.

Did you remove them from the recycle bin? :P

Anyways, one such program that I prefer is Brian Kato's restoration utility because it received many positive reviews from PCWorld Magazine. It showed me files I didn't even know I had!

MAKE SURE YOU RIGHTCLICK->RUN IT AS AN ADMINISTRATOR!

I hope this helps!
