Hi all,
My power supply blew up and took the mother board with it so I have had to
have a new mother board. Windows XP wouldn't load from the C drive so I
installed another drive and renamed the old drive 'D' so that my data was
preserved. Loaded XP onto new C drive and all works OK except I now cannot
acces the My Documents folder which idsnow on the D drive - I gt the dialogue
box message - ........is not accessible. Access is denied. Note that I have
set up my profile on the new drive exactly the same as previously, i.e. same
username and password.
Anyone got any ideas? and thanks in anticipation.

Try run,type:diskmgmt.msc In msc,L.click on D: drive,go to actions,all,
select "make active",close out.At worse,enter xp in safe mode,enter as the
"administrator",follow above.
