I installed 7.0 without seeing this:
http://www.pcplus.co.uk/discs/163a.asp
or this:
http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/fupdates.php3

Result: my FAT filesystem is a mess. Everything directly under my C:
drive is OK, but everything in subdirectories is scrambled (files,
directories, the lot....)

Names are changed from e.g. 'britney.mpg' to '74£hjk;d;¬! @' (yes, I
know, that's an improvement). Windows won't boot (because everything in
C:\windows has been changed).

Does anyone know how I can recover from this via linux or msdos? I have
a windows boot disk but that is all. I would like to get my installation
back, but failing that, can I at least recover the files?

any help gratefully received
cheers
Dave
