    Hopefully someone has some idea round this...

    I quick formatted my old IDE HDD but I realized I forgot to back up my old LL parks... any chance I can get those back via a separate program?

    It hasn't been formatted since so I'm hoping theres some way to recover a specific park that I had nearly finished.

    Its currently running as a slave drive on another PC but I can hook it back up as a master on the original machine if needed.

    Thanks.

    I'm not sure what you mean by "quick format," but a formatted drive shouldn't have any information on it. That's the point.

    As far as I know Quick Formatting only deletes the index of content. Means the data should still be on the HD and will be overwritten when you need the HD space.

    Don't know how to restore the data though.

    Yep.

    I just can't figure out how to access it.
