My computer crashed so I did a fresh install of windows. I had a bunch of pics on my hard drive that I did not back up. (stupid I know) Does anyone know of a way that I can recover those? Thank you.

I did the exact same thing last month, and was able to get every single photo back. As long as no other files have been saved to the same location as the photos, then Windows only marks them as deleted but doesn't actually delete them.
I recommend a program from PC Tools called File Recovery, which will recover any files that haven't been overwritten yet. There's more information about File Recovery at the link below, including a download link.
Hope it helps - pictures are worth more than just a thousand words...

You could take it in and have someone try to recover them but thats spendy and if Windows wrote over them when you did the reinstall they are gone for sure.

When you reinstall the operating system it reformats the hard drive... everything is completely obliterated.
