I upgraded from XP Home SP1 to XP Pro, and at the first reboot the computer froze on "Windows is inspecting your system...". I tried to boot with the XP Pro CD-ROM, but it failed to get past the OS choice screen right at the beginning
Anyway, I had to run the recovery CD, but since this wipes out the hard disk, I removed the existing hard-disk and build a new one in. All went fine, I ran the recovery CD, got a fresh install of XP Home, and installed Windows XP Pro SP1 as well in a dual-boot configuration
I would like to recover the data from my old hard disk, and I have built it into an external case. However, most of the files I need are under my old XP Home profile: "G:\Documents and Settings\James\... " on this old hard disk
When I click on this folder, I get "G:\Documents and Settings\James is not accessible. Access is denied
How can I access the files that are under this old profile
Many thanks in advance.
