Nikon Camera Memory Card Says Not Formatted with RAW Format

Problem1: Hello! How can I recover Nikon camera pictures from a Transcend 32GB SDHC card that cannot be formatted yet? Honestly, I bought this memory card on my Nikon camera about three months only and save about 5GB of photos there. However, recently, this memory card seems to get problems and tells: "Card cannot be accessed. Change the card or format the card with camera". But, I do have never done something improper to this camera card and also don’t know what I can do now. What’s worse, my Windows 8 computer recognizes it as raw file system format and says: "The card is not formatted. Do you want to format it now?" But, all these newly camera pictures have not been extracted out yet. It just cannot be formatted yet. Please help me recover data from camera memory card not formatted error! Thank you in advance.
