I was at school and transferring a file on my USB and then dragged another one... and all of a sudden it closed and my USB wasn't recognized. I took it out and put it back in and apparently it wasn't formatted... then I did it again and it says it's in RAW format. I don't want to format it or use any windows xp tools because I've come to not trust them. Is there any way I can recover my files? They were really important and I had some school related work there... Thanks, I appreciate it!

PS - The USB is a 2GB Kingston Datatraveler 2.0

Thanks!
