My music was deleted when it was accidently put into the recycle bin and was deleted because of an overload.
Everything in the recycle went. Need your suggestions on what software to use to get it back out of the hard drive and into the library.

If it was all deleted to make room for new data, which I think is what you mean by overload, there is no way to recover it. Sorry.

You can use restoration to recover files from the recycle bin. I use this program all the time Its freeware.

Restore files which are deleted from the recycle bin by mistake. Conversely, delete confidential documents completely. You donīt have to install it, so it doesnīt leave any garbage on the PC. (You can also run it from a floppy disk.) NTFS is supported from version 2.2.12.

I know of two pay programs that would recover deleted files but it best not to cause a write to that drive until you undelete the data or it loss forever and you need to find them again from somewhere else. Norton Utilities or System Mechanices V4.

unless you get bad cd-r which in later years will find its way to the coasters section of your collection.. oxidation?
You can recover things that didnt get over written yet. Final recovery, Or easy recovery professional. You need to download a full working version off a p2p. Otherwise these trial ones, will only recover so much. and then when it finds the data, you have to register it to save it.
