Try this link... you may want to try this software to recover your images...

you will need the USB drivers to use the flash drive on windows 98..if you have the cd then install the drivers or look at the iball website

hope it helps!

Dont panic... Just insert the memory stick in to a card reader and donot try to open it. but make sure that your memory stick gets detected.Then you can use any of the file recovery softwares to recover the photographs with out formating.I generally use the free app "PC file recovery". In case your memory stick is not detected in the first place, then There is no other option other than formatting. But the recovery software can recover 90% of the photos even after formatting.
If this doesnt work, post back. I will explain in more detail.
