  Well first, I would need to find the deleted PC they were on.  :)
  I've gone through a couple of PC's since 2000.  And at that time they
were permanently stored on a floppy, then burned to a CD.  That CD failed.
  Part of the problem was the burning program itself.  I can't recall the
name but it say a file had been successfully burned only to find out later no
it hadn't.
  I use Nero now and that's the best one around.
  I have CyberLink that comes with Windows as a back up program.
  Thanks anyway.
