If some sectors are3 not overwritten, you might eb able to rescue some files 
(pictures, textfiles or similar) by using foremost or scalpel.

Checkout a forensic livefile system. I suggest DEFT-7.2 (32-bit) or DEFT-8.0 
(only 64-bit).

It has got some nioce tools on it, so it might be not everything is lost.

Good luck!
