Uhm... There are programs that can do it, but they don´t give you a garantee that it completly works. Give Google a try with the kexword "undelete":

I think the first link looks good and is a free trial.

A seperate driver? So you have only one harddrive with one section?
Uhm... Than you have to set up your pc new and that means:
-Save your data on extern HDs, DVD and CDs
-Format your harddrive
-Seperate your harddrive into two or more sections. I think you can do it in Bios, DOS or when you reinstall Windows (I´m not sure right now).
-Reinstall Windows, progs and recover your data.

I don´t think that it´s worth it. Yeah and after deleting your harddrive the file is gone for sure xD

Mhmm... How interessting. I used another prog that´s not only for undeleting things and didn´t needed a seperate drive (if it´s that what I think of). The prog is called "Tune Up". It´s in German, but I hope that there is also an english version, because it´s pretty good and usefull.

If you need to recover a deleted file, you typically need to stop all data writing on the drive and do the recovery IMMEDIATELY. If anything has been writing data on the drive since the file was deleted, there is a very high probability that the file can no longer be recovered.
There are a number of tools out there for recovery, including some free ones. Cant remember the names right now though :\
