i reformatted his computer using the recovery disk it wipped out all his company's documents. i partitioned it to C and D drive storing all the data in D drive, presuming that the setup would allow me to choose to format and reinstall everything in C drive. But the bloody setup formatted the entire hard disk. i die liao .. tonite

somebody please pray for me ... Sad

Could have back up the important documents first. What done is done, just hope your dad did back up his documents and he has the latest ones at the Company.

No point beating around the bush too, just explained sincerely and truthfully.

BufPuf SG

why dun u tell him now
so that he can do something

if he need something urgent ..say a document by tmr..and when he reach home...it will be too late

You can solve this in two way:

First simply admit that you did it and try to be a "George Washington" and hopefully your father behaves like George Washington's father, but good luck, not everyone can behave like George's dad.

Second, you can try this strategy which I am sure many people will not approve but will do anyway. Ask your dad to bring a diskette from the office containing some software or documents and the moments he come back home, take the diskette and put it inside the PC, wait for 5 minutes and start screaming that the PC is gone due to virus attack. Act desperately looking for solutions and ask dad if his office PC is infected with virus. Simple strategy but effective! It work for me, and dont ask me where I use this strategy.

Good heavens.

Parka SG

relax, amico.

What's done is done already. Just be prepared to face the music.(Pun intended)

Nothing beats telling the truth.

And lastly, relax, tomorrow will still come.

NeonTetra SG

yup….be honest with him and i’m sure he’ll forgive u….no dad will hate his own son …..

blue_kelvinsg SG

thanks all. jus went to speak to my dad. he seems more upset than angry. it's all my fault; should have been more careful. luckily he had backup some data but those for the previous half-year had been wipped out. *sob* maybe it had been better if he had scolded me. Sad

Parka SG

I was wondering when you would post again, if you know what I'm saying.

blue_kelvinsg SG

im now trying to use some data recovery software to retrieve it back. heard that its possible even with formatted harddisk. wish me luck.

thanks for hearing guys. Wink

It's possible if the system uses a FAT32 file system, firstly dun write any new data on the system. and try to boot the software from a disc.

I use to have a software from R-studio tat was pretty good, d/l from kazaa I'm not sure but I think theres a option to use a disc recovery

shandower SG

Normally recovery disks will format and partition the HDD automatically. Hope your dad has backups.

M SG

Depending on your version of R-Studio, NTFS recovery is available. But from low level format? I'm not sure.. Question

Nonetheless, glad matters didn't go bad for you. cherish ya dad.
