Very sorry to hear of your disaster. Hope you can affect a recovery of the lost data. As a general comment to everyone, and speaking as an ex IT systems manager, I would recomend that you NEVER use the C drive to store valuable data. Just keep it for the OS and programs. OS recovery routines have a very nasty habit of reformatting C without asking permission!!!!!!!!!!!. Most modern motherboards will support a hoard of hard drives via IDE , SATA and USB interfaces and drives are cheaper than data recovery companies!

Although it's not much help for the present crisis, Leon, I am only a few miles from you and would be happy to give any help I can in the future.

I have had a major PC meltdown!

The funny thing is, I have 2 PCs, both of them went down yesterday! The one I am using now is working again, intermitently!

All data was wiped and I am currently looking into data recovery options, however, e-mails that were received yesterday are gone, I currently have no way to get them, so if your requests were urgent, please resend them and hopefully this PC will remain working for long enough for me to get them!?

2 PCs down in one day is just NOT supposed to happen! GRRRR!

All my sites will remain uneffected by this! Lots of material shot this year has been lost, LOTS of it, however we are still shooting so will have material for sites. As I also said, i am looking into data recovery options now.

Thanks

Leonmoomin
