Hi.
I started to erase a DVD-RW with the Plextools(i have a plextor dvd-r).As soon as i discovered that i began to erase the wrong dvd-medium, i tried to stop the procedure.I failed so i pushed the reset button to restart the windows and stop the erasing. It only passed about 10 seconds from the begging of the erasing procedure to the reset i pushed.

Can i restore some of the data?
If you turn the DVD on the side of the data, you can see that only a small part of it(in the centre,so in the begging of the medium) is erased.
When i put it to read if some data is ok, the windows explorer says that it is a audio-cd and Nero says that is a blank DVD.

Please help me!!!!

i would have to say that i don't think you're gonna get it back. You've probably just destroyed the TOC (table of contents) in that 10seconds but short of paying big money to a firm to get it back i would think your data's inaccessible.

In any case, try PC Inspector, it's free:
