We have an HP laptop that all of the sudden rebooted and went into the &quot;HP&quot; recovery mode, it appeared to kill the existing primary partition and replace it with the out of box setup partition all on its own and all data was lost. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
The good news is I can run a file undelete program and seems I can recover some files, but:<br />
<br />
1) Has anyone heard of this HP laptop issue, simply rebooting and starting its own setup program and killing the primary partition<br />
<br />
2) More importantly, what is the best windows file undelete program out there.. cost is not an issue.<br />
<br />
Thanks.<br />

Undelete Program

A laptop or notebook is a portable personal computer with a clamshell form factor, suitable for mobile use. Although originally there was a distinction between laptops and notebooks, the former being bigger and heavier than the latter, there is often no longer any difference. Laptops are commonly used in a variety of settings, such as at work, in education, and for personal multimedia. A laptop combines the components, inputs, outputs and capabilities of a desktop computer, including the display screen, speakers, a keyboard, and pointing devices (such as a touchpad or trackpad) into a single unit. The device can be powered either from a rechargeable battery or by mains electricity from an AC adapter.
