Unhappy -_- just lost ALL my stuff~~

(Well, guys, I officially lost all my Alizee videos, pics, musics(I got CDs) on my computer after I caught a really bad virus and the damn thing won't even let me go to windows. Now the computer is fixed after i formatted it. But ALL my stuff is lost (at least 20G) My 3 years of hard work is all gone!!!

I'm posting this thread not only to express my anger but I would like to hear from you guys on how do you guys deal with things like this. Shit happens I know but I spent soooooooooooooo much time collecting things.

Anybody know where to download? I don't even remember how I got the videos the first place (some from bit-torrant...and little bit from 1alizee.com. I only discovered 1alizee.com like 1 month before it shuts down) I really want some of the high def ones but they are HARD to find...

Help me out guys!!

Think about the songs and sing them loud. Close your eyes and dream you are in the videos in the audience. Or rebuild your archives.

Your mistake was formatting the drive before recovering the data. Hard drives are cheap enough that getting a new one would be worth just getting the data, never mind having a new hard drive in the first place!

It really sucks that you lost everything, though. The best way to start building up your Alizée collection again would be using DC++, in my opinion. Alizée-Forum has a thread explaining how to do this.

i accidentally formatted the wrong hard drive once, but i was able to retrieve most data on it by using O&O Format Recovery. however i didn't touch the HD upon formatting because writing over the files can make them irrecoverable.

as espire says try the DC, although i haven't tried it myself. i got most of my stuff from their HQ video download thread but i think many of them are expired links now. it would'nt hurt to try.

Regarding backups- regardless of any other factors like your virus, hard drive are mechanical and will fail. That is absolute. Only the time it'll happen is not.
