Seems like my PSD-File just turned black. I wanted to open my drawing and continue after bout 40hours of progress, and now the file just contains one layer - and its black!

I don't know what to do or how to fix it. Already sent the file to a friend to check if its my PC that has to get fixed, but the file seems to be destroyed. Any help?

That's a corrupt file. File corruption is always caused by hardware failure. It could be a failing drive or bad RAM, but the most common cause is saving directly to an external drive or over a network connection. Don't do either. Save to local drive, then copy over.

This is why we make backups...
