I recently had suffered a crash on my computer, as a
result, I had precious data in the 'my documents' folder
that was marked as 'private', I couldn't get access to my
documents because windows was missing some system files
and couldn't load, now I installed windows xp on a new
hard drive, and have the old HD set as a slave, I'm
trying to access my documents folder so I could copy my
documents to the new harddrive, but when clicking the
folder, it says 'access denied' I really need to get in
the folder because some of the documents are really
important to me.. Is there anyway to overcome the 'access
denied' issue and still be able to get access to my
files? I'd GREATLY appreciate if somebody could help me
out.
Thanks
