Default Recover lost files.

Hi. I accidently formatted and installed a new version of windows on top of the wrong hard drive.

I need to recover the files lost, particularly my pictures and music. Ive run the program but the computer just reboots about 20 minutes in and around 40,000 files found. I am previewing a lot of old pictures etc. Ive formatted and re-installed windows twice now on what im using as the primary hardrive. thinking it might be something else but it seems to only restart during a scan. It's only a 40gb hardrive needing recovering (using as slave). Help please! Thanks.

The Hard drive itself seems to be fine. It's not to warm and I have re-formatted it twice since this reboot problem.

Another note- Automatic Reset under> System Failure was unchecked when I just had a look???
