copied the wrong folder during a backup and lost all my 'raw' JPEGs of the last year of concerts!!!

All print quality images of:
Arcade Fire
And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead
Nada Surf shows

probably others :(

I'm so sad. I actually was going to print some of them professionally and get them framed :(

It's probably still recoverable if you didn't write over the HD. Do a google search for a recovery software. Fairly easy with the right software I heard.

i was doing a backup so i could do a re-install of XP.
did a long format of the drive :(

Format's OK as long as it wasn't one of those wipes that used specialised software to write over and over the HD.

well XP install allows you quick format and long format. I did the long format.
you think that the data could be recovered?

Yes, I'm pretty sure. All the data's still there. Just the pointers are gone.
