I'm not an expert on things like this so please bare with me...

I've just come back from some traveling and was looking forward to getting all my photos onto my computer. I actually had 3 or 4 memory cards, all of them fine except one - and its the biggest one too. My 2GB with the most photos on it just doesn't work when I connect it to the computer OR put it back in the camera.

Last it was working, I uploaded a few photos then ejected it, then the next time I put it in the camera it said "Memory Card Locked", but it wasn't locked, now it says just "error".
But the computer doesn't even recognise its there whenever I plug it in...
Is there anything I can do ?? It has so many memories on it and I'd hate to lose them!
Please help
Sara

One of the best tools for recovering lost photos is a free program calledPhotoRec by CGSecurity.

If that fails, there's Ontrack.
