I had a problem with XP on a hard drive (3 users). I was
administrator and used a password. The others did not have
a password. I replaced the hard drive and installed XP
using the same CDs and same password. I piggybacked the
old drive, removed XP from it, moved the other folders to
the new drive, but cannot access mine. It is there, but
cannot be moved, renamed, or copied. If I try to
reinstall XP on the old drive I am warned that it will
write over existing information. The folder has all of my
tax information, etc. Yes I know I should have backed it
up, but I didn't. HELP!
