Can't access admin files
« on: August 02, 2008, 11:22:17 PM »
 :-\
I removed my old hard drive form the case and made it into an external hard drive via a Hard drive enclosure kit made by Rocketfish.  I have access to most my files on my old HD, but unfortunately all my personal files/pics/music/THE GOOD STUFF is in the admin folder.  Now when I try to get in that file under "documents and settings"/admin... access is denied!!!  Tried calling rocketfish reps, but they are a bit tied up with their lightsabers!!

Anyone have a clue on bringing down that wall?? ???

I'm running windows xp on my laptop and the same on my old HD.  Help me computer hope, your my only hope.... (I know... kinda redundant) :P

Welcome to the CH forums.

Please read this....  It's hard to advise without info....

If your OS is XP this might help, and this for Vista.

Good luck
