hi i have a problem with the secondary hard drive,

it has a copy ofwindows xp installed on it, xp detects the drive, i know its not faulty, i know it works.

but when i click the icon in my computer, it says D:\i s not acsessible acsess is denied,

I run the xp on the c:\ but this time in safe mode, i am able to acsess the drive (this is how i know its not faulty) but i need the my documents due to course work being saved on it,

but when i click my docs it says another error message, forgot wat it said, but i cant get to it, but the rest of the drive i can,

my dad will try it on a linux os and he'll c if he can overide xps security, ill keep you all updated. plz post suggestions.

thanx (just hope after all of this, i get and A*)

p.s. i remeber changing the user setting but i dont know how to change them back

if you can access it in safe mode, then just back up the info you need, and reformat it.

you mean back the my documents folder,


yeah, i don't get it iether. if you can access it in safe mode, then why can't you just copy the files over to the working hard drive, then reboot and open the files?
