Nooooooooooooooo!
I'm feeling pretty down right now. As in, cutting myself sort of down.
My Windows just cannabilized itself, and my EB and all its 70-80% complete campaigns with it (including almost done campaigns for the Romani, QartHadastim, Ptolemaioi, Hayasdan and Koinon Hellenon.
The worst part was that when I went to format, I swore my EB was on the other partition... apparently not.
FFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU............

Yes, but recover from a reformat? That shouldn't merely have erased the file from memory it should have erased it from the disk as well. Otherwise my understanding of diskformat is clearly lacking.

Re: Nooooooooooooooo!
Your understanding of diskformat is lacking. It will merely format the file allocation tables. On the assumption that he didn't do a low-level format, of course. And that nothing else has been written on top of them in the meantime.

I think there are utilities that can recover files from a high-level formatted disk. I don't know if Recuva is that thing, but google it and see what you find.

Having problems getting EB2 to run? Try these solutions.

I do NOT answer PM requests for help with EB. Ask in a new help thread in the tech help forum.

Heh I just had a similar problem. I just installed Windows again, it made a Windows.old folder, and I saved all I wanted before doing a format and clean reinstall. Now my computer runs better since I did the installing myself, plus I saved my EB games.
