recovering data from an old parition....

Expand Post »
Hey everyone,

I want to recover data from an old partition....the partition used to have win xp sp2 on it...and it all happened when I tried to use some free space from it to create another partition using acronis partition expert...but I was unsuccessful in creating the partition and I lost all the data.

Now, I am running winxp on a different partition (other than the one which initially had winxp)...and I tried to use "RecoverMyFiles" software to recover the data on the old partition...but it didn't properly work out..

Thx.

Re: recovering data from an old parition....

Did you write anything on the old partition? If you did, the normal data recovery software will not work.

Try R-Studio which is available at

No, I didn't write anything on the old partition...but when I navigate to the old one through window interface, nothing appears.

And I tried using that software but that did not work out...

Thx.

I think this is the company I used to recover some lost data, before.
