Yes, provided the information has not been written over.  You can buy the data recovery software OR you can do something that would lead to being investigated by the FBI and they will do it for free.  That was dumb, sorry.

Yes please re-installing the software , the portion on the Hard-drive the files was copied is corrupt , after this it will be ok, or it may be your memory need to be change at worst scenario after the re-installation if it still happen , your files are saved if you only uninstall and re-install but don't delete your crated files

Yes, but if you've already written over the sectors where the data was stored, it's most likely beyond doing it yourself. STOP using the drive immediately and you may still be able to recover some data. There is a free data recovery program called Zero Assumption Recovery that you can try. Another program called Getdataback For NTFS ($100) is a better option than a freeware program.

You could however use a disk wipe program that would make it next to impossible to get data back.\nlink:\nhttp://www.pcworld.com/downloads/file/fid,22920-order,1-page,1-c,alldownloads/description.html\n\nI think that is the way you would want to go, the charity gets a complete  computer and you have a high level of security.\n\n\n\nThe only sure way to protect your data is to take out the drive.\nalmost all files after a normal format can be recovered with minimal effort.

nope, that data is lost for good, you can remove that image from the external drive, but you can't recover the data that was there before he copied over it

well \n     there is no real way to remove everything... even if you format, it is still possible to recover information...pictures, music, exc... but you the average person...place the windows install CD in restart the computer and tell it to remove the C: partition, this will also format it...keep in mind that you will "lose everything" so place anything you may want on a CD or DVD.

Nope.  The Data is writen in tracks (like groves on those old record things) so it can be pulled off as the disk spins.  So by breaking it, you break all the sequences at once.  It is possible for a forensic unit to get some of the data off the broken CD, but in all cases there will be a heck of a lot of loss.

If the data has been completely overwritten I don't think there is anyway of getting it back, but if it has been partially overwritten you may be able to get some of it back i.e. if it is a word doc file.\nUsing something like 'Restoration' which I have had some success with in the past but ensure you install it on another hardrive otherwise you will risk overwriting the data you are trying to retrieve.\n\nCheers!
