My sister just came back from holiday with a load of photos and videos on her digital camera. The memory card is an 8GB MicroSD SanDisk. She put it in my card reader with an adapter and it came up fine but the second time she did it Windows didn't find them and said it needed formating.
I tried different data recovery programs with no luck before using TestDisk. It came up as "Bad boot sector". I used the rebuild BS option but it didn't work. I looked on the net and read I should try cmd (I'm using Windows XP). Type chkdsk /X /F X: (X: being the drive letter, in my case it's G:). Now the card boots up but it's blank and only 1GB instead of 7.6GB as it was before.
I think I've messed it up. Is there anyway to rescue her photos or are they gone forever?
Here are the screenshots from testdisk
