Help needed to recover data

[beejayzed]

Hi

I took some video footage using a digital camera, and it was stored on a 128MB memory card.

I later let someone view the footage, but somehow they managed to delete it.

 

There is no way I can retake this video, so I need to recover the files.

I have no idea where to start, please, can someone help me.

Well, I think I recall reading somewhere of a program that could do that (recovering deleted files from memory cards), but I can't even remember if it worked under Linux or Windouze or whatever.

 

Try searching for such an app on tucows ( http://www.tucows.com/ ) - they have a variety of software for several OSs;

Or try sourceforge ( http://sourceforge.net );

Or something like that...

 

Or wait for someone who knows better to tell it here... :P

 

In the meantime, DONT'T WRITE A BIT INTO THE CARD!!!

nope. the files can be retrieved somehow as long as you do not format the memory card. but don't ask me how it is done. all i know is that you need some special software for this.

Thankyou for the help.

 

I found a few programs that claim to recover data from flash cards, theres quite a few.

I'm looking for a linux one though, anyone know of any?
