    Data recovery from Dvd+R??

    I made a back up disc of alot of pictures off my computer. I also had everything that was currently in "My Documents." I wanted to re-install windows because I got the computer used and it had alot of crap on there. Well like an idiot I didn't check the dvd to make sure it was burned correctly. All my truly important items were on my flash drive. Well Now the dvd wont read in my computer (or anyone else's). I have some pictures on there that I won't be able to get back from anywhere else. I got the IsoBuster program and it finds stuff on the dvd. But one of the folders in my documents was a folder for burning movies. So it has found files that shows movie clips (very poorly) but NOTHING in terms of my Documents or Saved pictures.

    Does anyone know any way I can get those files using IsoBuster? It really confusing. What is Sector View?

    Thanks!

    are you saying that the disc is failing because of a physical error e.g scratch or a data error e.g bad burn ?

    Welcome to the forums


    You'd be better advised Googling for dedicated 'Data Recovery' software.
    There are a number of FREE programs available - and some which are specifically for removable media such as CD's/DVD's, flash/media cards etc

    So you make an ISO of the DVD and then try and extract that ISO's files?
