windows restore point from me on an xp drive

[kahjah]

i installed an old drive with windows ME on my new computer, i set the old drive as a slave trying to transfer some old files from it to the new drive. I shut it off then it rebooted in windows ME. and went into windows restore before i could stop it. Now i can't read from the new drive at all, it says it was corrupted and i believe i tried to format it to see if that would work and still nothing. I put a new drive and took out the corrupted one. Now my question is. Can i put that corrupted drive in my computer and get the photos from it with your program? or is the drive gone forvever? the old drive was FAT32, and before it was corrupted the drive with the pics i want was nfts.

Yes, you should be able to get you photos back from the problem drive.

I am not exactly sure what has happened in your situation. I suggest that you first try a "Complete File Search" of your problem hard drive for the specific photo file types. If you can no longer see the drive as a drive letter, then search the "physical drive" (the booting drive is usually physical drive 0, and a second drive is usually physical drive 1 - but you should be able to tell which is which from the drive sizes).

You will be able to use the demo version to find and preview the files found. In the results screen, click on a file to preview it in the bottom window. If you find what you are looking for then you can purchase a product activation key from www.recovermyfiles.com, enter it into the program and save your files.

You may not get full file names back with a Complete File Recover, however you may also like to try a Complete Format Recover as this should bring back the entire missing partiton on your drive.
