|I try to access my old XP disk from a new XP PC (as my old video card died)
| using a USB enclosure, my user name was "admin" on both.
| I can access all folders and files of the external disk except "f:\Documents
| and Settings\admin" which is precisely the one I need.
|
| I looked around, called MS support that sent me to Fujitsu (new PC) that
| sent me to Toshiba (old PC) that said it was out of scope...
| I tried to boot the Fujitsu with the Toshiba disk, it would work but I
| needed to re-register and didn't, and now the S/N is on the Toshiba which is
| at Fry's...
| So I'm screwed and nobody seems to be willing to help.
| This must happen to other, no?
| Thanks in advance.
