DO NOT TOUCH THE CARD ANYMORE !!!!
Hello pflower,
this seem to be the time for some forensics...
1. Have you made any changes (e.g. photos) on the CF card since you lost your 4 picture?
If yes - you might have overwritten those files you are looking for.
If not there might be a chance to recover those photos by "data carving".
This not very simple, but I could help you.
Step 1:
Get a forensic image of the CF-Card.
Step 2:
Upload it somewhere that I could download it.
Step 3:
Find the signature of your 3FR files.
Almost any file starts with a special signature in hex (FFD8 btw. is jpg)
This would be the header.
Some, but NOT all, files do have a special signature in the end.
(FFD9 ist the footer jpg)
Step 4:
Scan for signatures
Step 5:
Recover found images
(for jpg: copy everything between FFD8 and FFD9 into a new hex file and rename it to .jpg => Here is your jpg)
A good tool for step 1 is the FTK imager Lite (freeware) which runs without installation on Windows.

You can contact me.
Maybe I could help you on the phone or via teamviewer

This software would allow me to get some remote access to your PC - that is what i recommend.
