recover partition after reinstall windows XP

recover partition after reinstall windows XP My OS was infected by trojan or virus and system files are corrupted. After tried to reinstall XP several time and failed, I took out the hard drive and prepare to back up files for a clean reinstall. Then found my data partition (D:) was empty except only a pagefile.sys, but looking into property, still can see 80% of disk space used (80GB).

"http://www.piriform.com/recuva Is a free tool made by the makers of CCleaner.

It's worth a shot and certainly doesn't cost any money.

ddrescue is another very powerful option but it's more gear toward linux professionals. It works wonders."
