This is due to the NTFS security permissions on that
storage area. You can regain access by taking ownership.
However, if you plan on using that profile in the existing
laptop system boot, taking ownership on an alien system
will present issues.

You should refer to the recent thread in this newsgroup

important data in laptop's harddrive. so used the harddrive as a USB drive
on another PC. all files can be accessed with no problems, except for the
following problem. it seems like access to user's folders like the my doc
folder is denied. suspect it is due to the start-up password i set on my
laptop last time.  have tried using the drive as a primary HD on another
laptop, but it seems like it cannot be recognised... any ideas on how i may
access these important folders?
