I recently bought a newer pc. It already had XP on it, as did my old one. So I didnt bother to change over my HDD. But afterwards I wanted to transfer some Music & Pictures from my old HDD to my new HDD, but when I enter into the files on the old HDD, all I get is a message saying "ACCESS DENIED". I can look into everything on the HDD, but it wont let me access "MY DOCUMENTS".
Has anyone had this problem?
I thought XP allowed file transfer?
I dont want to lose my files on the new HDD by "SWAPPING" drives.
