there are specialist companies that charge a lot of money for data recovery, if you REALLY want your data back you should try find one.

My cousins company, in Jyväskylä, could do that... in a couple of years, when they really make it a company.. now it's just some sort of youth company or whatever... but they have ambition, for sure. They have good plans. You might wanna ask him... but I doubt they have the technology just yet...

That really sucks man :-\

I can almost guarantee you that from now on you'll religiously back up your data!

Once bitten ...

Something you might want to try is slaving that hard-drive to the one in your dad's computer.  If just the boot sector fried you can still access all the data on the drive.


good luck,

Well, it's not that bad...
My every friend telled that my story for "Wormmaster's Odysseu" sucks...
So: I made a new story and start again, but the character's animation... Ah crap... >:(

BTW, could they recover data from melted hard drive?
My hard drive melt, because I kept it on all the day (playing TK's games ;) ), so it's all my own fault...


BTW, ya know a game called Cult?
If you don't, I could give here link for that very AWESOME adventure game (not made with AGS!)
