[OM] Snags with a CF card, was E-thing guys

While on my holiday I had a snag with my Kingston 1Gb card in my E-1:  
I took a reflection photo in the Coto Doñana and hurried to "chimp"  
the result.  I pressed buttons on the back in a certain order and  
suddenly the LCD showed "no image".  Eek!

I tried various things to recover the photos, but I had to wait until  
returning home to the UK to look for the Lexar software ... only to  
find that it was a physical box, not a download.  It was not until I  
had bought 2 other recovery programmes that I managed to recover  
about 25 shots from the card.  I don't know what I did to the  
playback and menu buttons, but something caused a hiccup in the  
recording process.
