Accessing A Folder On XP

C

On my comouter I am the Admin. I restrictred access to my personal folder in
docs & sett. The boot sector on that drive failed. Put in another drive &
made the old C: into D:. Now when I log into the Admin account on the new C:
I can't open my old personal folder in the D:\docs & settings. Access is
denied. This is what would happen when I would log into another account & try
to access it when it was C: - which is what I wanted.

I really need to get to the files in this folder. How do I open this up?
