I have a drive out of a users vista pc that died. In the past I've been able to take ownership of the users or Doc/settings dir and get the files copied off but for some reason this one won't let me. I can try to take ownership but it won't do it. Tried on an XP and Vista machine. Google is failing me, any ideas? -- "On two occasions...I have been asked, 'Pray, Mr Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?'
