First lesson to remember : never save your data on the same partition than your OS. Just never. Every time you do that, God kills a kitteh.

To save your problem without any risk and trouble : download any Linux LiveCD (Ubuntu or Mandriva are fine) boot from it, get back your data file on some different storage (HDD or DVD) then you'll be free to format / reinstall your whole OS. But remember first lesson : do a partition scheme to separate OS and data. Please take care of kittehs.
