    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?
