So, I used the godfather... and aparently, I did something wrong, because about half of my 5300 songs were deleted...
Luckily, I was able to use PC Inspector File Recovery to recover all but about 1000 of them.... And I believe I have the CDs for about a third to half of those songs... so oh welll... Still sucks that I lost all that freakin music.
What was weird, was that some of the files I recovered, were like mixtures of several songs. it would start playing one song, and then play part of another song, all in the same file...
I know it's probably beyond hope, but is there a way for me to get back all of the files? System Restore's not bringing them back, though I didn't know if that's because they're all on my media HDD, and not the HDD my OS is on (though I have System restore active on both drives....)
