Accessing old hard drive

[Frank]

My laptop power went out and I removed the hard drive and
made it a slave drive on my desktop computer. Both are
running Windows XP, but I cannot access several folders.
I get the message "access denied". What do I need to do.

Thanks

This article describes how to take ownership of a file or folder
(non-encrypted) to which you have been denied access:
