Urgent: Undelete on W2K/NTFS volume

I have acccidentaly deleted some files on NTFS volume (not using Explorer,
so Recycle is empty). Are those files lost forever or I can somehow restore
them?

Please respond ASAP!

TIA,

I believe there was an undelete utility at http://www.winternals.com.
Unfortunately, currently is this site under construction. There are probably
other undeletes (Symantec?).

In the meantime avoid all writing to this volume. Don’t browse web if your
browser cache is there. If the volume is on separate drive (different from
OS drive), you can disable this drive in the Device Manager temporarily.

Urgent: Undelete on W2K/NTFS volumeSwitch the power off (or better press Reset switch if you have it). Do not allow the caches to be flushed.
Then boot DOS and Norton DiskEditor or such.
Then arm yourself with Linux NTFS source and try to restore the files back by byte-editing the disk. Remember all updates made.
Then load NTFSDOS TSR (it is OK, it does not use the log-based restart) and read your files.
Then roll back all byte edits to avoid contradictions between disk data and transaction log contents (I cannot say just off-head whether this contradiction can be a disaster, but this is possible). Then boot NT back.
