VIDEO HELP!!! PLEASE ANSWER :)?

this will work fine , go to your computer and copy the whole contents of the files on your camera , transfer them to a folder' "as is" , go to your camera , and format the card (yes it is empty already) whatever the outcome is format the card once you have a copy of the files on your computer. then it is basically film what you have at the rodeo , and the files which are in the folder are still ok , get the rodeo off , grab the files and repeat the above steps formatting your camera , then grab the contents of your past video , transfer them across , if there is a warning on your camera for write protection at this point , go to the removable disc , and click properties , there will be a tab or a check box which will say write protect , uncheck/check it , and try again , once the files are successfully loaded back on make sure you go to properties and reverse the uncheck / check for write protection on your device
