Did you backup your profile in c:\documents and settings?
did you export your certificate key to disc first?
Without the cert key, its impossible to decrypt the data unless you have a REcovery Agent somewhere.

IF u got a backup then delete all ur old files on your com and decrypt the backup on a different computer then add the backup to ur com u started with!Or just make a backup of everything and reformat the computer
