Oh how hilarious...

My computer destroyed itself. Literally. I was happily working away then BOOM! Smell burning (never a good sign...) and it's gone off. Few hours later and I restart it:
'Operating System Not Found' message appears.

So, basically, until I have the will to get all these images again and remake all I had, this project is as good as dead to me...

(I know you're gonna say 'back things up' but I'm going to be honest, I wasn't expecting this to happen...)

Was it your hard drive that crashed?

If not, then you can salvage everything by removing it from your computer and connecting it to another computer with either a hard drive enclosure or a hard drive dock (docks are cheaper and easier to use)

**speaks from personal experience after a transformer down my block exploded taking out many electrical and electronic devices belonging to me and my neighbors--in my case an old tv and my XP computer (luckily it didn't catch fire, as I could smell burning too)
In any case, my hard drive survived, so once linked to my new Win7 comp through a hard drive enclosure, I was able to recover all the data that was stored on it.

Based on your description, it doesn't sound like you had a hard drive crash, btw.
