Bad News

Well I have some really bad news

I was backing up the demodvd to disc and my PC locked whilst writing the dvd..

well to cut a long story short, a reboot was needed and now the partition that the demodvd files were is no longer working

Windows simply says it needs formatting.. well if I cannot recover the files, it seems the demodvd proj might be dead!

Can all the contributors (Well Bobredthorp) confirm that they have still got their contribs?

If so and I cannot salvage the files, I'll start again

Arghhh

:eek

I hope you can save most of it after all that work you've done

OMG no! noooo! nooooooooo! This is terrible news

. I still have everything I did backed up! Maybe if everyone also has we can patch things back up?

I recently deleted all of the Demo DVD stuff I had, so....

Ok, let's all try and help bippy, he's been working on this for a long time.

I have a utility called Bad Copy Pro. Never used it, but it's for file recovery and supports Win XP.

How about trying it out?

Unless of course, the project needs to be laid to rest....

Great news. It's always annoying when you lose a HD.

TheBoss · 13 April 2004, 09:36

Everything back on track then
