Neat little program

    I'm fairly diligent about backing up the wife's pics on her external HD. So when I backed up everything the other day before I formatted her computer. The problem arose when I went to put the pics back on the computer. It kept telling me I needed to format the external drive to get it to work. Same thing when I put it on my laptop. So in order to save my ass (I sensed a severe beating coming) I did some research and found a program called TestDisk. Works in a DOS window and will copy all of the files back to the desktop HD. I've already copied a few and it works great. Finishing up as I type. So if anyone needs to recover some files, you can give this a ride.
