being my techie self..

the sd card is not formatted.

November 28, 2007

I never thought that this would happen to me, EVER! But it DID!!! My iPaq has a 1GB SD card and it was nearly full. I think I had about 100MB of free space left on it. It was full of files: my ebooks, my wares (short for softwares), my cab files, mp3s, games.. everything! I used to think of my iPaq as my mini-entertainment system. :D But Murphy's Law di ba?

Whatever can go wrong will go wrong, and at the worst possible time, in the worst possible way - Murphy's Law

So, it did!!! I use a POPCOM SD card reader and it has been with me eversince I got my phone which is what - a year ago. Mikee and I were trying to install Windows XP Pro on my laptop and I've downloaded the drivers on my SD card. I had to leave my laptop with Mikee because I had work at that time. I got to work and then I received a text message from Mikee saying that my SD card is not being detected by my laptop anymore! HUHUHU!!! Sabi ko kay Mikee, just plug it to your computer and see if it will be detected. If it can be detected, just copy and paste everything to a single folder in Mikee's so that I can reformat the damn card later. But even Mikee's computer was not able to detect it!

Now, you may want to try this. It worked for me. I was only able to recover some of my files though. Not all of them. It's not able to recover .LIT files (MS Reader files) and other ebook formats. It's called POWER DATA RECOVERY.

Nice soft! How about PDFs kaya nya?

I’ll try that next time pra maiba naman. I used Recover My Files the last time I tried to recover a deleted file, on my friends thumb drive.

- Ability to resume the last recovery result.
Ganda pala may resume.

Question: Marecover pa ba sa disk, memory card, etc ang files na narecovered?

Tama ba yung question. I mean diba if narecover na sya. Then trip mo lang irecover ulit, andun pa a sya sa storage?

Kaya nya dude! Kasi may mga PDF files din ako sa SD card ko nun at narecover sya. Pero it depends pa rin on how corrupted the SD card is..

Answer: As long as di irereformat ulit yung storage media, pwede mo pa syang i-recover ulit.

Files that are actually recovered are stored in a particular folder sa HDD mo. :D

Oh, my girlfriend is South Korean and her dad is in Seoul. And you are right, the city is dangerously close to the border and vulnerable to both artillery and nukes. I agree that the stakes are too high. Besides, in the event of war, NK will surely disintegrate and SK can barely afford unification (SK economy, after it collapsed in 1997, is very fragile at this point).
