Please download and install Recover My Files from www.recovermyfiles.com or by clicking this link: http://download.getdata.com/RecoverMyFiles-Setup.exe.

Run the program and select "Fast Format Recover". Click Next.
In the drive selection window, look for the "physical drive" that is the same size as your problem disk. Put a tick in the box next to this drive and click Next.
Let the search run and when it finishes, look in "Folder View" of the results screen for your files. Click on the files to preview their content. If you can see them, purchase an activation key from www.recovermyfiles.com and save your files back to your C: drive.

Did the Recover My Files Fast Format Recover find them? Please let us know the results.

Thank you.
