Today (and tomorrow) I'm doing a employee inventory and update for the new company face a portrait archive of all employees, 1x formal pose and 1x funky per person, was great fun today!

Imagine my horror when I put in my 1gb LEXAR PRO card to find the cards folder contents were EMPTY!!!! Now I had my bag at my desk all afternoon but was not sat at my desk, I had to do some remote work on the laptops elsewhere so don't know if the images genuinely had vanished off the CF card or if someone tried to be a smarty and have a look at everyone's photos and accidentally wiped the folder!

I did a quick google and found pc inspector smart recovery and it seems to have done the job perfectly!

People need to know about this, it could save someone else a heck of allot of hassle when the worst happens!

Aye, I'd be pretty wordless if I had to go in tomorrow and have everyone retake their shots!
 
Heh it's still going! it's even bringing back shots from ages ago! (so far it's gone back to 27/8/2006) now I know I've formatted and reused the card many many times since then!
 
I shall see tomorrow if anyone is suspect :p

Anyways, it's 100% completed now, a few files were corrupted though the jpeg embedded in them works fine, I just extracted that and am using that instead as they only want low res jpegs anyway :p

Great success!
