SONY C:13:01 Format Error, i need these pictures!

I went to Mexico, and my SONY MEMORY STICK PRO DUO HIGH SPEED 1GB was working fine, on the plane back between changing the card in my SONY Cybershot D50, around from my SONY 512MB. I protected all the images on the camera from being deleted accidentally. (Would this have affected anything?) I get the format error only on the 1 GB memory card. I don’t have a card reader so have to download through the camera. I have tried everything excepting taking the camera to bits. I have managed to get the files onto CD, through a shop but the files cannot be viewed. They appear as JPEG images and MPEG videos but nothing can open them. I have tried the trial version of badcopy, on the CD. Very badly need these pictures I’ve read right through all self help, but can’t understand why nothing works. Please help. Many thanks. Ryan
