Well, it's pretty hard to give any any specific answer, but in general.

1. You may try to use some type of DATA Recovery program see if you can
recover the delated data. But the util may be able to recover the delete,
but may not be able to undo the damaged? But I may be wrong and you can
always hope for the best.

2. Now we may need to use different technique. As most of Photoshop users
know Photoshop is a Photo Editor *not* Photo Viewer so its requirement is
more than Photo Viewer, or it may refuse to open the damaged or renamed
extension.

So, you may try to open the damaged photo with a regular Image Viewer,
then SAVE to whatever format you want. Then Photoshop should be able to
open it.

3. Next time, try to save to CD or DVD.
