Oh Mr Gary, that is not funny !. I take it you have no backups ?. I keep absolutely every piece of data under one sub-folder on my machine and once a month I connect up an external USB drive and just copy the folder. I know it's not much help now but there's a saying that your computer is only as good as your last backup  |

Mate, there will be a way to save them, even if you have to pay a bit to a recovery centre if they are irreplaceable pics you have ?.
Just a thought, were they deffo backup up on the same OS that your trying to copy them to ?.

Sorry for the loss of posts fellas.
As above posted by jazzy Pro bords had a hard drive go down. they normaly back up every week but just at this time had not done it for 3 weeks and we lost every post from the 1st.
The data is Lost for ever we will not get anything back.
So we will need to post like crazy now to get our numbers back up again.
I am so sorry for the loss of topics and posts and I apologise to new members who may log on to fined out they dobnt have an account any more.
But it is sorted now and they are changing the way they do things now so this will not happen again.
It could have been worse we could have lost 6 months or lost the forum all together. so 3 weeks loss is not that bad.

Good news that you got most of your pics back. I back up at work to a hard drive daily and then once a month all that months work onto DVD, we just start a new folder every month and it works a treat and it makes finding things much easier.
