    So about an hour ago i linked my cellphone to the pc to store some really important photos but as soon as i opened the file i wanted to use, everything was really messed up! I don't understand what happened, out of all the stupid files i have in my phone my most important, with stuff i need for university and some really awesome pics with friends is destroyed! I access it through my cellphone and find a bunch of unknown files that never exist there in the first place, everything is corrupted and when i try to access it via the computer i see this

    PLEASE PLEASE tell me that i can fix this! I am freaked out!

    EDIT: So, i found some sites that seem to be able to help but i seriously have no idea if i should do anything.

    I think maybe your cell phone's hard drive may have some bad sectors.

    Try running CKHDSK on your cell phone and see if that does anything. First open a terminal window by going to Start > Run.. then enter cmd in the new window. Type in the following into the terminal that appears. Replace x with your cell phone's drive letter.

    Code:
    chkdsk x: /r

    Will try that. I was told that i could also use a card reader.

    What make things more complicated is that even my music files are corrupted and the music player won't respond.
