Replies Zw33K3RB0Y Posted at 3:11 pm on Nov. 25, 2006 Depends what kind of format you did. A quick format just removes the directory database which tells the PC whats on it and where it is, and will overwright data when needed. A full format removes everything. So if you did a quicky, just google "Data Recovery" "Un-format" "Un-delete" or "Format recovery". Good luck! ominousmusic Posted at 4:08 pm on Nov. 18, 2006 If you don't add anything new to the drive you can probably recover some stuff. Google data recovery or undelete.
