Can't access saved folder on a moved Hard Drive.

I recently bought a new computer. My old system had 2 hard drives so I
loaded everything all the Users wanted on the new system onto the 2nd
HD and installed it into the new computer.

My personal folder, on this 2nd HD was marked as "Hidden" and, now, I
cannot access this folder ("Access denied"). This folder contains all
my Flight sim files, my Windows Address Book, my saved Favorites for
IE, my resume and on and on...I REALLY need to get this stuff!

My old system was XP Home, my new one is XP Pro.

Is there ANY way I can get to these files?

I desperately need to transfer this folder to my new system...I have
tried accessing it through the "administrator" account, in "Safe" mode
but have had zero luck.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Vic
