    I have tried a few trial programs and they are not seeing deleted data, I think I have blown it, I quick formatted it accidently, doing a floppy.

    Formatting isn't the problem, it's laying data over the top that kills the ability to recover...

    PCinspector is free and not a trial...but it's unusual for a pay program not to see the deleted data.

    Quiick format should be recoverable fairly easy if as NooNoo said you have not written data over it

    Yes, firstly it doesnt work with windows vista, but ok with xp, I am finding data but its all folders marked root, there seems to be the right amount of gb, but cant see folders that were original, all I did was fast format it by mistake, I have not put any new data over it.

    That may be due to your choice of how to recover the files. The help files are well laid out and explain your choices and what happens.
