You could try getting a forensic tool such as FTK Imager, or EnCase and doing an "acquisition" of your hard drive to recover some of the data to another hard drive. EnCase works from a live boot CD, so if you use that and another hard drive, I'd imagine you'd be able to recover a fair bit.

Then again, I'm not forensics expert.
