if you only re-formatted the disk and did not re-installed windows yet, then you have a small chance to un-format the drive. Therefor you need a specific data recovery software.
On the other hand, not every program in windows can be copied from one pc to another, there will be registry settings and sometimes even files from your application in the windows folder

The short answer is it depends. If you reinstalled your operating system, you are probably screwed. If you haven't yet done so, try finding a copy of Stellar Phoenix NTFS on the net. This program scans the entire drive and will recover 90-95% of files. Hope that helps :) IT@tonicweb.co.uk

you have two options and neither is guaranteed to work.
1) buy or download and run a data recovery program
2) send your hard drive away to a data recovery specialist - it will cost about £500
