Data recovery is something we cannot really help with, since it's hard to figure out what the problem is and how to fix it. Our RMA centers aren't equipped to handle data recovery. It sounds like there's either a virus on the drive, or corruption. Run a virus scan, if that doesn't help, I recommend consulting a data recovery expert.
