I had to install a new hard drive in my lap top because of system failure. My issue is I can get to everything but my documents/music on the old hard drive (I didn't have a password).....but I get an error message saying that the drive is write protected...... which it isn't - the only area I can't access is the area that I need. Any ideas.....PLEASE, please, please I am begging you.......... :'(

When posting make sure to keep the below guidelines in mind.
* List as much about your computer as possible. This includes operating system (what version of Windows you are using), service packs, computer make/model, RAM, hard drive, sound and video cards, current adware/spyware/virus programs being used on a regular basis, do you have a "real" Windows CD, etc.
What type of operating system are you using on that laptop ?
