i was using windows 7 rc and then it fkd up so i started to use a linux live cd to recover my data. the backup drive i was using was not partitioned correctly so i used the partition manager to create a partition on the drive, however, i accidentaly formated my windows ntfs partition on my primary hard drive to fat32. is there any way to get the data out of the drive that i formated over (it was a quick format so i know it didnt delete the data).
