First you check your all new and old data in Documents and Settings folder of your Root Drive by checking user accounts with the name of ur login. I think now ur new user account names are hidden check all user accounts by unhide them. if u find ur all data then copy it in another drive then run pc in command prompt option by using key f8 on the starting time of computer and run the chkdsk ( checkdisk command ) , I think ur problem have been solved by it,try it.

Hi

the only way to kno whether your files r there ,is to searchon your root drive -the old or new user names, when you find a folder with that user name ,there is a folder for the documents of that person

Otherwise, your data is gone buddy,sorry

And...as far as I kno system restore wont help in this case.....if the first step doesnt work out

Hmm, try some data recovey software as told earlier.....

regards
