I've used EasyRecovery Pro in the past to recover files deleted off pen
drives. I've also used it to check how secure Eraser is in wiping a company
hard disk before it was given away - Eraser did a very good job :-) Even the
raw recovery mode in ERP couldn't get anything back. I've also run it, out
of interest, on my PC's project hard disk and I was amazed what it managed
to bring back from the mists of time.

But make sure you a) freeze the hard disk NOW and b) don't install on the
same partition as you are trying to recover from.

If you have lost a serious amount of data, go out and buy another hard disk,
install vanilla Windows XP and ERP on there, and then try to recover the
damaged hard disk.
