Hello,
As I pointed out in the subject, my motherboard (or
processor) died. I put
my HDD in an external enclosure, however, since my data was
in marked as a
private folder, now I cannot access these files.
Does anyone have an idea on how to get to my files?
Thanks in advance,
Sheilon
You need to disable Simple File Sharing and take ownership of
the files. Take a look at these articles for more info:

Note: If you are running Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition, you
must start the computer in safe mode, and then log on with an
account that has Administrative rights to have access to the
Security tab. To start in Safe Mode, reboot your computer and
start tapping the F8 key as soon as you see anything displayed
on the screen. Keep hitting F8 until the Advanced Startup
Options menu appears. Use the up and down arrow keys on your
keyboard to select Safe Mode. Hit Enter.
Good luck
