I save everything, pictures and all of my schol documents, onto my Toshiba 16GB flashdrive. Thursday my Gateway laptop crashed but luckily I had my flashdrive. Friday I went to the library at school to prin a paper off of my flashdrive, the school computers I believe are Windows Vista. All of the documents on the flashdrive came up in symbols with saved dates 80 years into the past and future. It wouldn't allow me to open any of the documents, so I safely remmoved the flashdrive and put it back in and then it said it was empty, however when you go under computer it still shows there is space taken up on it but those documents don't show up. It will allow me to save new documents to the flashdrive and open them but none of the old ones will show up. I know I probably need to restore it but I don't have the money to pay someone to do it for me and my school's IT help desk is closed today so I would prefer to get it done as soon as possible if it can even be done. I hope someone can help
Thank you!
PS: My laptop that died was Windows Vista, the current netbook I'm on is an hp with windows 7
