Data Recovery after OS Reinstall
Need help immediately!
“I recently got fed up with my graphics driver on Windows 7 and decided to reinstall XP. So, I formatted C drive and installed XP on it. Now, I wanted to install drivers which I had copied on D drive of earlier Windows 7. When I opened my computer and navigated my way to D drive, I couldn’t find D drive there! Only C drive on which XP has got installed is present. I was little pissed off and again reinstalled Windows 7. Now, I can see all the drives on disk management but no data present on drives. So, my question is can I recover data after OS reinstall? Is there any program that could help me to take out of this problem? If so, please suggest me because, I have lot of important data on it.”
