Thanks again to all responders, specifically Augeas, your insight and candor are greatly appreciated. Any further ideas on the specifics of how or what method/software/company can be used to "piece the recoverd files back together" would be greatly appreciated. I will be investigating but I'm sure someone on here has a better idea.

Greetings, Thanks to the responders. I meant to say 1.92mb not kb so I wanted to clarify. So what now? Running a deep scan won't produce the pics I've already recovered right? I do have a flash drive (didnt have it with me) So Augeas are you saying that the files that have already been recovered have no future? That my only hope is in further recovery? Because I have already ran and recovered the ones she wanted, my question is what can I do to those files that have been recovered? Please clarify - Do I really need to run a Deep Scan? The same files won't be recovered again will they? Please bear with me and be specific as I am far from experienced in this endeavor.

Greetings, My sister Running Windows XP SP3 - a Systems Recovery was ran and photos of Europe were lost, very precious. I ran the Recuva program on her PC and recovered 900+ photos. They had to be saved to the same drive they were originally contained on, I missed the part where it was "Highly Reccommended" to save them to a drive other than the one they came from. Some came back as they were, while others just say "no preview available" (as they did while they were being selected in the window before pressing Recovery) and when I click on the standard icon for the picture it opens but again comes to "NO PREVIEW AVAILABLE". The file isn't blank, if I run over the file it shows 1.92kb or 1.67kb so they aren't empty. Is there a next step or are they gone forever? Can they be deleted again and recovered t o dif drive this time? (I know that is stupid) I'm very desparate here and I hope that someone will be able to point me to something. Thank you in advance.
