After pressing OK all the data on my SD was gone... I'm sure my data is still there, but how to get them back? Can anyone please help? Jay

I think is it just DOS formatting, but it's been a while. http://www.wizcode.com/products/view...c_professional Pocket Mechanic can repair some problems and has a free trial.
