Accessing data on a hard drive from another laptop

[chidcguy]

My laptop stopped powering up and there was no battery left. It
happened while I was gone to lunch for an hr or so. Any ways, I bought
an external enclosure for my 2.5 hard drive in my laptop hooked it up
to another laptop and could successfully see the drive over USB. How
ever, the most important folder for me is F:\Documents and
Settings\myusername which is now inaccessible. On my old laptop this
was nothing but C:\Documents and Settings\myusername. I need to access
the desktop folder beneath it, which has more folders in it that has
important data on it. As of now it shows inaccessible, 0 bytes and read
only in properties. The drive was on a laptop with win xp sp2 with
NTFS. Any pointers on how to access it will be much appreciated
