====================================
Do you still have your original .jpg files? If not...
I guess this would be a good case for why backups
are so important.
HighMAT technology has been discontinued by
Microsoft so there is not much info available on
how to convert the files. At least I have not been
able to find any info on converting.
Some info:
(831240) Update for HighMAT Support in
the Windows XP CD Writing Wizard
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=831240
There is a free viewer you can download from the
following site that should allow you to view the files
but I don't think it will convert them back to .jpg.
HighMAT PC Viewer
http://download.chip.eu/en/HighMAT-PC-Viewer_105434.html
The following software says it will allow the creation
of a HighMAT CD...I do not know if it will allow
previously created HighMAT files to be converted
to .jpg but it may be worth a try...there is a 14 day
trial period.
InterVideo MediaOne Gallery Platinum

Also the trial version of ACDSee can create a
HighMAT CD so possibly it can reopen the CD
and allow the files to be converted back to the
original format.
How do I create a CD or DVD in ACDSee?

Good luck.
