Hiya folks

Can anyone help.

I am trying to recover some files from a friend's old HDD. So i set it as slave and put it in my mahcine...

Alls well and good, drive shows, i have access etc....however I cannot get into their "My Documents" it says "Access Denied"...fook, all the files needing backing up are in My Documents, anyone know how I can access this area (Without major hassle?)

morto
