Thanks for the info.
I checked my backup from May 15th and noticed I did backup the most important info from My documents (interesting what I found to be the most important info to save). The only thing I missed was my photos. I am going to try and retrieve those off the camera. I have come to the conclusion that since I have already installed the Windows Operating System again I probably overwrited the partitions with the stored data.
Oh well, I just have to make sure I back up more frequently.
