My daughter hit the power button on the power strip that everything on our computer is plugged into. After that, the computer would not boot up. My dad, whose fairly computer savy, determined that we had to perform a system restore. After we reloaded windows, we realized that everything, all our pictures files and programs from years, was gone!!!! It was supposedly being put into a "backup" file, but nothing is there. My dad put his old hardrive in his computer, which he loaded windows on, and our old hardrive is still there. Has this ever happened to anyone else? Any ideas about what we could do, if anything? Feel free to email me if you have any advice, as well. I'm desperate. I lost pictures of my daughter from when she was born, holidays, personal very important files, that are priceless to us. Of course, we can't afford a $1600 restore process though....any ideas?
