Lost data on Jump Drive?

Hi,

My friend put her jump drive into her Vista PC and it stated it needed to install a new driver. She said OK to that and now, all of her data is lost. It's almost as if Vista quick-formatted the drive. I have tried several data recovery utilities and found some of the files but, they all show up at 1,440kb. I did try another utility and it showed up a lot more of them and, they were at the correct size but, the full version is over $200 to buy!!!

Anyone have any ideas on anything else I can do/try please? The one I got the most success with found the files under the NTFS format but, the drive states it's in FAT format.

Cheers,

C
