Hello there, ok i need some clarification here! I took a load o
pictures of my nipper's school sports day on my digital camera an
decided to burn them direct from the camera to a CD so she coul
subsequently show them to her friends on this and her friend
computers. I duly plugged in the camera and dragged and dropped th
files to the CD drive icon using windows explorerer. I use Windows X
(Home Edition). The files were duly transfered to the CD in 'shado
format' and i pressed the "write these files to CD" icon. All went wel
and i noticed that at the end of the burning process when prompted t
press the 'finish' button on the Wizard all the shadow file
automatically disappeared! Well the CD was a peach and i therefor
deleted all the files from the camera. NEXT?.... Yes you guessed it,
few weeks later she lost the CD on the way to school!! So i have trie
to find the files that were created on the computer during the burnin
process because the original camera files have gone and I hav
discovered that they were temorarily stored in a file called "C
burning". This folder is however empty. During the interim period
have burned 3 or 4 further CDs with lots of data for my wife's MS
studies using the same technique and the computer has been re-boote
many times since the original sports day copying. Also i have used th
camera pretty extensively for other family pics. My question i
this?.... Do i have a hope in [bleep] of retrieving/rescueing/restorin
these files? I would be prepared to pay for a specialist company to d
some sort of professional retrieval as my daughter is now very sad.
Thank you in anticipation...

Which only works if you haven't taken a load of pictures since you
deleted the old ones.
