    Cant browse through files
    « on: May 15, 2007, 01:29:47 PM »
    Ever since my e Machines computer died I took the hard drive and set it as slave on a DELL computer to copy files like music and pictures it got detected and everything but I cant find any of my pictures or music from iTunes and windows media player. I search folders but always end up in a folder with nothing in it. I unhid the folders by using their properties. but still nothing. Is there a way I can recover my stuff from this older drive so I can transfer it to my DELL, any suggestions, anything???

    Was this in an XP machine ? ?

    Were you using any file encryption ? ?

    What OS is in the current machine ? ?

      yeah, both are XP machines. I did not use any encryption but it was password protected though.

      Then you will need to remember the password to see your data...
