I'm assuming its on another machine and you can't boot it up.
I don't know if this will work but its worth a try.
There are linux distros that can run from a cd and booot you puter up.
Maybe you still got a chance but you might want to get someone that knows puters
I know this works from cd i tried it never played with it though it has recovery tools on it though
