I have windows xp pro. Three days ago my sons friend was on my pc with his
moblie phone and disconected the phone just by pulling it out and not by the
windows way. anyway to cut a long story short my computer would not work . I
tried everything but nothing. in the end I bought a new motherboard? and
installed eveything back as normal. This is where the problem is. I had to
install it on to another hard drive I had in my computer. When I try to
download all the docs from the old hard drive it is saying in the documents
folder: (F:|Documents and Settings\Brian Morley is n ot accessible. Access is
denied. it does this on all items I wish to move to the other hard drive. can
someone help?

Replacing the motherboard and reinstalling the OS, all the drivers, and
all of your software applications sounds like an expensive, time
consuming, and unnecessary over-reaction for a problem caused by
disconnecting a mobile phone (or even dealing with a virus infection
caused by your son's friend). However, that's water under the bridge now.

You probably need to take ownership of your files:
