Let's just say that you had previously encrypted part of your secondary hard disk using the WindowsXP NTFS encryption. Later, your primary drive is formatted without backing up the encryption keys for the secondary drive. Is there any way to recover the data without the keys?
EDIT: If there's no easy way to do it, anyone want to take a shot at breaking the encryption codes, or giving some tips on how to go about it? Would really hate to lose these files. They're pretty important for the most part.
/me kicks himself for forgetting to back up the recovery agents.

What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

You know, I heard someone call in TechTV with the same problem not to long ago, and they said, that there is no chance in getting em back. But TechTV IS hardly ever right. I would download some password programs and set them loose on it ... I mean heck as of right now you can't get the data back, so whats the worst you could do to it right?

Well, aside from possibly causing additional damage to the harddrive's software, you could accidently lose any chance that you have of obtaining the lost information. Proceed with caution.
