I recently installed a new 750 Gig HD and installed XP pro. My old drive still
contains information that I want to be able to access in the Documents
Settings folder. When I try and access it I get an access denied message.
How do I get around this? I remember reading something about it but
Ed,
Give this a try. Take ownership of the folder.

Keep in mind which version of XP you are running to follow the
instructions correctly.

Shut the machine down and connect the drive.
On boot up go into safe mode.
when you are booted up open up my computer and highlight C:
You will right click C:
From there I cannot remember but you must take ownership of C:
Once you do this you can get the stuff off.
