The photo sync is one way - computer to iphone. As the photos came from your computer in the first place, then they should still be there and should have been included in your regular backup copy of your computer.

You can e-mail them to yourself. they will not be of the original quality.

The iphone is not a storage/backup device. It simply mirrors the selected content of your computer/cloud service.

There are 3rd party PC apps that transfer from iOS device to PC ,suggest you google to see if they cover

photos

Do you not have a back up of your PC data ??

Copy them from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
