can photos be retrieved from a wiped pc or laptop? - 3rd Jan 2011 9:02pm
hi peeps do any of you own a business etc which this can be done and can it be done, excuse me i am not very techy at all so will try to provide as much info as i can....
pc and laptop were infected with virus....prob from facebook...so they were both set into factory mode to get rid of them....
before i did this, i placed all the photos on a pen drive, which now does not work....
i asked someone to look at the pen drive but they said it would have to be sent away and i would be lucky if info was retrieved...it wuld cst up to £200 (which may i say will gladly pay as these photos are worth more than that to me)
i am just worried if i send the pen drive away, these photies would be lost forever and i would be devastated...
can this be done or should i prepare myself for the worse ????
