Download Hiren Boot CD.
Boot into Windows and insert the CD.
Under File Recovery use GetDataBack.
Just make sure you don't write any files to the drive you want to restore from.

got hold of ver 12 gone through the dir can not see where it says file recovery unless i am looking in the wrong place

Did you boot into Windows as normal, then pop the CD in?
It should Autorun, then you should have file recovery menu.
I'll download version 12 so we are both singing from the same hymn sheet.

If you open My computer and right click the CD can you autoplay from there?

Otherwise browse the CD and goto:

HBCD - WinTools

Then double click AutoRun
