Some software issue (system running win xp pro) came up a
couple days ago and I had to reformat the drive (safe mode
and "repair reinstall" didn't help) and did a clean
install. I imaged my hard drive to another one before I
did the reinstall, but when I tried to copy the files from
the imaged drive to the newly installed win xp, it told me
that "access is denied". I think it might have something
to do with the password I had in my previous installation
of windows. Does anyone know how to get around this
problem?
