I recently got a new laptop, and need to retrieve my data
from my previous laptop (which will no longer boot--ROM
corrupted). I have my old hard drive (XP also) hooked up
via USB to my new laptop, and I was able to transfer
certain data. But most of my files are under \Documents
& Settings\Owner, and when I try to access that folder,
it says "Access Denied".
Is there any way to remove/bypass the "Owner" security
settings so I can retrieve my data? I thought about
switching out the new drive with the old one, but am
afraid it might screw up my new system.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
