Well you know what that means? I should RTFM a bit more next time!

Nah, but I thought it would be of use to anyone who had a SFS problem and
couldnt work out how to get thier data back again. Infact, Quarterback
Tools recovered the information after two reformats of the partition! (I
gave up on the work that I did loose and then found CUCD12 with it on).

It seemed to take quite some time to recover the information (75Megs of
work, took approx 8mins) but what matters is that I got it back and have
now made a backup!

Anyway, Cheerio
