Boot up into dos to use Unerase, boot disk,pen drive, or CD.

At least give it a try Unerase is a great recovery tool.

There is a good chance your deleted files have been already overwritten by
the undelete softwares you tried to install. Your best bet would have been
to install the software (pc inspector file recovery, free, or others) on a
2nd computer and attach the harddrive with your deleted files temporarily
there.
Another alternative would be a floppy or cd bootable recovery program.

Yeah. First thing, golden rule; when trying to recover deleted data, 
make an image of the disk you are trying to recover. What you should not 
do is try installing dozens of different recovery programs first.

The mentioned softwares I tested on another machine where I
deliberately deleted few files.
The original machine however has installed R-studio and Easy Recovery
prior to deletion.
Boot sequence on it cannot be changed so I was hoping for either a
small prog to install or run off a floppy(such as winundelete-too bad
it won't work in NT), or one that can work from another pc through the
network!?
(which Norton Unerase for win is perhaps capable of that?)

Install a data recovery application on another machine...
then slave the drive with the lost data to it.

Do not attempt to install anything on the drive with the lost data.
stop using it at once!@!!!

Having more than one drive is rather criticial as well.  I keep a copy of
REST 2514 on a seperate drive.  It's small enough to fit on a floppy and of
course a flash drive and it's self contained and free.  It's not too bad at
it's job either:

Thanks for the input however the mentioned software did not find the
files either
Does Total Commander actually write zeros to deleted files space?
