Thanks Runamok81!

To answer your questions
No, I did not make any changes to the settings...
I don't think there could have been an improper dismount since I never took the card out of its slot since I put it in there until today, it has never been switched over to another device etc.
When I get home, I'm going to switch back to my old 1gb card that came with the TP to make sure its not my TP thats at fault and also check to see if the PC recognizes the 8gb SD card.
There isn't much crucial data on there except for the regular pics and programs I have installed, it's a pain to install everything again. I will probably try one of these SD data recovery programs...Thank you for that info.

Is there anyway to find this .cab file you are talking about if the reformating does not work? What is it called?
Hopefully a hard reset is not what I will have to do by the end of the day...once again thanks...
Any info from anyone else will help a lot...
