Thanks! :-)

at least I knew something about recovery tool but I
couldn't use that. The recovery tools that comes with
are commercial and only contained demo version which
can only show that which files can be recoverd.
Anyway I got my files recovered in my friends windows
xp machine.

By the way I am wondering why there is no file
recovery tools in linux while there are plenty of
recovery tools available for linux file systems (e2fs,
e3fs) in windows platform. Linux users don't do any
mistakes like what I have done?
