Prevention is better than cure, so try to back-up your valuable data

As for your question, there's lots out there, depending on the exact problem. If you just want to restore your PC into an earlier configuration, then Norton GoBack 3.0 is one option. In WinXP, you can do this easily without having to buy extra programs.

If you just want to recover data, recovery softwares like MagicRecovery and DiskmasterPro are good.

Norton has a nice tool too but unfortunately I forgot the name but you can easily check in www.google.com or Norton's homepage...

Windows XP has its own system restore which can help restore your computer to an earlier state. Its quite sufficent for basic restoration and its turned on by default.

You should try it first before attempting to buy commercial programs to help you.

Ariel i suggest you use EasyRecovery Professional. It has 6 diferrent modes of data recovery. If you have any deep knowledge about hardware and file extension and Signatures of files you ca use its advance mode with over 80 percent of recovering your data.

There is also a GoBack program from another company which is quite good, although i've forgotten which company it was (It definitely wasn't Norton though).

Maybe system restore would work for you? Although I reckon it probably wouldn't work, as i'm not sure it undoes deleted files. It might do though (This program is pre-installed on windows Me, 2000 and XP i believe).

Most of the programs, like those recommended by some posters here, will not work for your case as you've not installed the software before your hard disc crashed. These software are meant to be installed to track your last good configurations and backs them up for you automatically everytime you shut your computer down. If any problem occurs, you can then use the program to recover your last good configurations from the backup archive done by the software.

Of course, some software are able to recover data before it's installation date. However you should use the feature with care as it may cause more damage and makes data unrecoverable.

This name is Norton Ghost

There is software out there to restore disks, but they rarely work and usually make the problem worse. This happened to me and I used drivesavers.com and they sent me all of the data on DVDs. If you want drive recovery from a company, here are some of my favorites.

This bootable disk has many tools for solving problems, most of the tools on the disk are freeware.

well,refering to disk restore,Norton Ghost must be the first place.it is very powerful to do any job about disk.remend you to try that...and try the dos mode version which is fast and easy to restore.
good luck.

Reminds me what recently happened to my 80GB external drive... I had a major crash and I've been painstakenly reconstructing the entire drive by hand as nothing else has been able to recover it. Fortunately, the drive was mostly defragged but I know that I'm going to end up with a massive amount of data loss. Backup? Sure, but this drive was my storage for backedup and original data. I ran out of blank DVDs before I was able to copy everything. The best thing is to have multiple backups of everything as not all backups remain uncorrupt. Prevention is better than any cure...

I am not sure which recovers data from disc. I think it is damaged with disc then you will not able to recover data. But if you talking about HDD then it can be try R-Studio. I used many times and successively restore my data.

[mahesh2k]

During 2005-2007, i used a program called Genie Backup manager. it was cheap and worth to pay for. after that one day i lost the partition and unable to recover my data from it. so was desperately looking for data restore and backup software. usually best way is to send your HDD to data restore companies or the HDD makers if they can offer this service/support.


So for freeware you can try Convar's PC Recovery Software. You can get it from here. Or another one is called Recuva. Both of them are free. and if you ask me which one to use then my vote goes to Convar's PC Recovery software. Also take a look at Disksigger.

There are plenty of other cheap and useful programs out there for disk management and recovery. you can try softwares like "BadCopy Pro", "Photo-recovery wizard" etc. Worth to checkout.
