First of all - don't write anything to that disk!!!! If you have the operating system installed on the same disk, then shut it down, hook the disk into another machine and access the disk from another OS installation.

Then look at for instance http://www.fish.com/tct/help-recovering-file

Hope it helps.

I agree with PsiCop.

Generally it's not worth the effort unless your job or something else is on the line and then there's always the possibility that your data will not be recovered by the process. Good luck
