@Vinnie,
I have had very good success Winternals Disk Commander. It boots from a CD into a windows PE environment and searches for recoverable files on your hard drive. I have even recovered files off of a corrupted partition that did not show up as a drive letter under windows. You can save the files to another hard drive, a network drive, or a USB flash drive (I personally like this method and use a 1 GB Lexar drive). If you have more than 1 GB of files to recover, you can fill up your flash drive, dump the files to another computer, then go back and get some more. Good luck getting your files back.
