My old PC died so I bought and set up a new one. I have loaded most of the programs on the new HDD including pulling off data from the old HDD (ie its temp folder) but now, I want to pull data from the old HDD that is contained within dpcuments & settings/user/my documents.
When I click on the user though, it tells me I have no access. I have set up my new computer similar to the old one. It has only one user (admin) and a guest account. If I cannot gain access to this folder on the old HDD then I will not be able to copy over all of the office documents, all of my pictures and all of my music. Also, I am using Mozilla thunderbird for my email and those emails are in this part of the HDD folder as well.
Any ideas on how I can gain access to the documents & settings part of the old hard drive?
Thanks
