Default photos won't work after recovery

hello there,

I have a problem which I noticed few others suffering on the net. Havn't found a solution yet.

I bought a new computer w\o a new hard disk.
I've got 2 hdd and wanted to format only one of them (with the windows installed) for accidently formatted the wrong drive, my 250gb wd drive. It was a quick format and I restarted the computer at 20%.
well it didn't help, everything got 'deleted'.

anyway, I used full format recovery and it did find it ALL.
But, many files won't open. most of them are jpg(none opens, says no preview available and on some other program that the file is corrupted. some others are winrar files. most of them don't work, but some do(!).

please help!those are many important photos!
thx in advance!


ps, after I accidently formatted and recovered, I copied few photos from an old computer before connecting the hdd to the new computer. well after windows loaded the drive up (something like rescuing orphaned files) those photos didn't load as well! seems to me like the MFT I saw you talking about. but what should I do?? thank you again!
