I asked hubby for some input. He said to run 'Scan disk', that would show if you had a bad sector or not. If it was bad there is no way to retrieve the lost data. He felt the only other cause could be third-party access and suggested you think of every person who has used your computer.

I love the fact you named your puter 'Legolas'! Now watch mine get all pissy and revolt against me cause it doesn't have a name..... quick whats a good name for my puter?? lol
