Well your description of what you did was very vague but by the sounds of it you have installed a new version of Windows replacing the old one, which means no everything has been erased.

Have you tried downloading a undelete file utility ... though if it has extensively overwritten files ... this wont help you. In this case the files will be lost unless backed up somewhere.

I had one of those fake things as well - it's a scam to steal your credit card details if you sign up to the program that would allegedly 'fix' the problem - sadly it happened to my mrs' laptop, and she lost all her accounts project work for her AAT
