Access denied to files on my old hard drive: HELP please!
Hi,
My desktop PC has died (apparently the motherboard has gone). I have removed the hard drive and connected it to my laptop via USB. I can see most of the folders but some say "access denied" when I try to open them. HELP!

The files probably have been given restricted permissions on your old
computer. Right click on the root directories, and reset permissions - give ALL to your new computer admininstrator user. --- (Radford) wrote in message . com...
