Hope someone can help. My SD card (Kodak 1MB) Which should have many pics on it is saying SD card needs formatting when camera (Kodak DX6490) is switched on. If I continue it warns that anything on the card will be lost. Is there a way to save the pics please?
Laptop has a built in card reader but when card is inserted it comes up as drive E and shows nothing.

    You could try Recuva, which is free to download and is supposed to be able to get damaged data back in this type of situation.

    Many thanks, although Recuva didn't work for this one, you gave me the clue to search for another. PC Inspector smart recovery did it. Thanks again.
