Recover files

I need to recover some files after formatting my HD.
Is there any way I can do it without having to pay for software?
The question is Can I do it alone?
Thank you...

Edit: Newer windows have been installed now on that PC.

There is a lot of Data Recovery out there, although I am
not sure how much is free.

data recovery software

But if you have overwritten the data, you are unlikely to get it back

yeap... I have already searched and I found a program that it says it can recover your files even if you have re-installed windows and it is that:
http://www.recovermyfiles.com/
but you have to pay for it...

and another one (free):

http://www.pcinspector.de/file_recovery/uk/welcome.htm
that I don't know if it can do it because of I have overwritten the data...
i was just asking because I wanted to know if someone knows something better, before I try those I've found.

Thank you elija...

alot of those free trials are jokes ... you install them, run them, they tell you they found X amount of files to recover then the small print comes into play: in order to recover these files, you must purchase the software.

i've been there DR ... so i can empathize with you. good luck.

Yeah, I know. That is very annoying.

Might be able to find out if they are, at least recoverable though.

I have used http://www.snapfiles.com/get/restoration.html in the past as it's a stand-alone application and will run off my USB key. It's free but may not have the capabilities to do what you desire.
