***DO NOT REBOOT YOUR MACHINE***

If you rebooted your machine; the chances of you getting your data back have diminished expotentially with every reboot.

If the latter is the case and you have rebooted your machine, even once, then your data is probably lost. But you can try and send it to a Data Recovery service, but it will cost you.
http://www.drivesavers.com/ is one of a few reputable places.

FYI- never issue blind del commands. Your best bet would of have searched first for *.tmp thru the search GUI. Then delete the files from there instead of via the command line.

del *.* , no matter what is after the 2nd star, is extremely dangerous.

Ontrack has sever different tools and I have found the to work very well. Even in the case of a failed HD, it still got my database off and saved me.
