Hi. I was defragmenting my HD when I accidentally pushed ctl+alt+del.

This caused my computer to reboot in the middle of operation.

I cannot boot from the HD now and when I boot from a cd all the files are
in symbols and don't make any sense. They look like they are in the same places with similar sizes but all the text is missing and replaced by wierd symbols. I started useing dskchk but I don't want to loose my whole drive.

Thanks
