lost my video

This afternoon I transferred my 1 hour editing project from a laptop over to a more powerful desktop via an external hardrive. I made a few little color corrections, saved the project and then went away for a few hours. I am now trying to open the project and I get the exact audio and video timelines, even showing the few splits I made, but there is nothing but blanks on both video and audio. Can someone help. I am so at a loss. I looked everywhere thinking that maybe it saved the new work somewhere else, but I find nothing... Help please...Tom

Is the external hard drive still attached? Is it's drive letter still the same?

The drive letter may have changed. Point the project media to the files on whichever drive they are on (we know it is the same drive, it just may be a different drive letter).

Do you get any error messages when you open the project?? Such as it cannot find the media?
If you do, you can point it to where the file now resides and Vegas should find everything.
