OK. I got it figured out. The problem I was having with copping my drive was that I had preformatted it. It worked after I removed the partition and copied that way. Getting to the "locked" files was not too hard either. I did get a USB adapter for the laptop drive. I then booted into safe mode, logged in as admin. In windows explorer I went to the directory in question, did a right click, went to properites. It had an option there to replace ownership of the files.
Kinda nice what desperation can do sometimes ;p HD On 12/5/05, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > In a message dated 12/5/2005 1:27:54 A.M.
