Ok, well, the p’s (parents) have enough experience to view their
email, go on the internet, and download digital photos on our old sony
VIAO, but this morning, while I was sleeping, catastophy hit; when
booting up windows they were faced with a message saying, and I quote
my parents "something wrong with windows configuration". So, they
were prompted to insert their windows cd and instead inserted the VIAO
recovery CD (because that is the only one they have) and well, the
computer is back in 1998, which is ok because it works now, but my
mother has lost all her pictures.
So here is the question, would there be any way to pull the pictures
out of some sort of system recovery that I have overlooked besides the
regular windows system recovery or anything that I may have
overlooked, even though they haven’t made any backups in the last 3
years or any other safety precaution of the sort. I told them it was
hopeless, but just in case I may have overlooked something, I’m all
ears to the advice that you guys might have for me.
Thnx in advance for any responses!
