Steven, If the card is still showing up but detecting as unformatted you can try using free tools such as PhotoRec (http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec) to attempt data recovery on your own. If that does not work we license a number of great professional data recovery programs and would be happy to take a look for you. Swing in and chat.
