My computer won't start at all and the C drive has to be reformatted. But I can copy files out of my C drive with command prompt. What are the locations of any files that would be needed to recover my bitcoins stored in an Armory client on Windows 7?

Yes it was very stupid I didn't backup... Help please Cry ?

C:\Documents and Settings\YourUserName\Application data\Bitcoin (XP)
or
C:\Users\YourUserName\Appdata\Roaming\Bitcoin (Vista and 7)

Armory builds on top of bitcoind, so your wallet.dat should be somewhere in there.

Armory does NOT use the same wallet as the Satoshi client.  You should copy all files in the ..\Application Data\Armory folder.
