Hello !
Maybe someone can help me?
I have 2 physical HDD.
C - system HDD with Windows XP and programs,
D - HDD with my files and so on...

I format disk C, install Windows XP again, and now I can't open files on disk D, that was created with previous Windows XP !!!!
For example: "D:\Alexandr is not accesible. Access is denied"

What to do now? How to open these files ?!!!

With best regards, Alexandr.

This article describes how to take ownership of a file or folder
to which you have been denied access:

Sorry, Carey. There has been a malfunction in the MS server, it appears.
Your reply did not appear until I checked my posts this morning.
