Well I just had a positively hairy last hour.
After spending a couple of hours at the swash and taking over 250 photos, I put the compact flash in my computer and I get that dreaded exclamation blinker on my task bar saying that data has been lost. This has never happened to me before.
I quickly did a search of lost photos here and found the link to PhotoRescue. I downloaded the trial version first to see if my pics were still there and sure enough they were. I very willingly paid my 29.00 and within minutes I had all the recovered photos copied into a folder in my computer. Now, I have no idea if any of the pics were worth 29.00 but it sure is nice to know it is here for future problems.
That is very useful to know KC,is the Photo resue a website?
Yes it is and I suggest that you bring it up and save it to your favorites immediately. This way you won't waste time as I did looking for an old thread.
