I had some success using Iolo Search and Recover (Iolo.com) to retrieve
hundreds of photos from a bad xd camera flash card and more from a bad
sd card. The 'deep scan' option seemed to work best. I didn't get all
the files, some were corrupted, but I salvaged probably about 90%. The
flash drives do not last forever; it's a good idea to back them up
occasionally to a cd or a hard drive. My first step would be to try to
copy the entire flash card to a pc, then try to do the recovery from
there first. If that fails, then try to read the card directly with a
file recovery product.
