I was working on a mix for awhile and then Acid (Pro 2.0)
crashed on me... when I opened it back up, it told me the
mix I was working on was missing the RIFF header and
couldn't be opened. Does anyone know of any way to fix
this?

Subject:ugh. nevermind.

The remaining file is 0 bytes. Grr. Does ACID keep backups or even
temp files anywhere?

Yea, I had the same thing happen to me (missing RIFF header)in Acid
(pro 2.0). I wish I knew how to fix it. The file I created is for
the New Year's Eve countdown for a Major rock act. I am attempting
to recreate the composition from scratch however it's tough trying to
get all the nuances back. I think I'm screwed. I hope it doesn't
happen again. I guess the name of the game is more backups!
