How can I access my old files from before I re-formatted my windows? Long story short...linux went gay and i couldn't do anything so I had to put windows back on...re-install drivers which was a pain in the ass and now I can't get to my rar of files that I made up for when I re-installed windows. Please help.

No.
My Windows partition is C:\ because I just said screw linux after it went retarded so I am using windows xp home.
My D:\ Hard drive partition has my old documents that were user password protected and made private and now I can't retrieve them.

Out of order
Oh right... I see.
Knoppix might still be the way to go then.
Don't know if the password protection will be an issue though.

i know if they are password protected then you will need to use the same username and password that you did before to be able to access them.
i dont know of any programs to just copy them but there might be one.

It's not really encrypted but it was in my old user name's my documents file and I made the file private and I had a password. When I go to click on the My Documents folder it just says access denied. It has some movies and my important documents in it.
