First off... Thank you Windows XP Setup for ignoring me. </sarcasm>
Anyway, I was installing XP last night, had two drives in the machine, empty and backup. Selected the empty drive to install XP onto, and it goes and formats my backup. Sounds like a windows thing to do.
Anyway, since it was a quick format, I know the files are still there, I just don't know how to recover them. It's a 200 gig drive, so I figure it'll take a f**k load of time to recover, and I doubt it'll remember any of my directory structure (ugh :( all my music, so nicely organized).
