Hello,
I have a really urgent problem. I have my PhD in a removable disc. I worked on it yesterday (21/0809). I am trying to open it today (22/08/09) and it doesn't work. It says that the "the disc in drive E is not formatted". What i have to do? Its a work of a lifetime and i don't have recent backup. Thank you.

Do NOT try to fix this yourself. You can destroy your files if you don't know what your are doing.

Find a local file recovery service and send them your hard drive. It will be VERY expensive but it should be successful.

Good Luck. Next time keep current backups on two computers or email yourself a copy of your project every day to two.
