Hey,
So I have a dell dimension 4600 running XP HOme Edition-all service paks and updates completed (yeah I know its old). I also have a 400 gig Iomega external.
I cloned my Dell's Hard drive to the external and used the dell system reboot disk to re-install windows XP.
Here is the process I did step by step:
1st: I cloned the entire Hard disk on the Dimension to the Iomega External using Acronis Disk Director Suite 10.
2nd: After the program completed the Clone process, I then wiped the hard drive using the dell system re-install disk.
3rd: I attached the external to access the files, the computer designated the drive as Drive 'D'. I installed the network and Ethernet/LAN drivers.
4th: I went online and installed AVG antivirus.
5th: I tried to open the My documents folder on the external
The Adddress of the folder on the external
D:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents
-I got this error message:
"D:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents is not accessible.
Access Denied"
6th: the only other folders aside from 'OWNER' are 'GUEST' and 'ALL USERS'. The latter two folders only have shared documents
7th: The Acronis Disk Director Suite 10 is still available on the External which again is a clone of the drive before I wiped and Reinstalled
8th: There were no passwords associated with Owner, once you turned on the computer it was immediate access no log in required.
My Question is how do I gain Access to:
"D:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents" AND ALL THE FILES CONTAINED WITHIN?
