I have two windows 7 machines both with the same OS windows 7 Home Premium one will access files from the external drive the other won't. The one that does not access tells me access denied with no permission, I have followed Microsoft instruction to gain permission but does not work. I have tried folder access and files like MS word to change ownership but does not work. Could it be a bug on the computer? I even tried to access the file on a old Windows XP access with no trouble. does any one have solution would be a great help. Ojas
