garmanma mentioned a Live Linux CD as a possible way to check my hard drive. I download Puppy Linux since I read about it in the latest PC World. Would this be fine too?

EDIT:

I just ran it on my computer with the problem...unfortunately all that was on the drive was some junk which I couldn't decipher as well as some files that were made when I did some of the commands in the Recovery Console. I then loaded Puppy on my old computer (using now) to see if I could view the hard drive which I was able to...so it looks like my computer had it's drive wiped mad.gif

Is there any possible way to recover what was on it over a week ago? I am unsure if the BSOD error UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME problem caused this or my typing of commands in the Recovery Console which later caused a NTLDR is missing message. This is very very upsetting to me >.<
