Moving a hard drive

[Dana Raymond]

Hi everyone. My main computer just died and I moved the
hard drive in it to my other computer to access the
files, including hundreds of digital family pictures. I
can access the drive and many folders but I get
an "Access Denied / not accessible" message
for "Documents and Settings/ZOD". This is where all of my
pictures and music files are kept.

Both computers were running WinXP Pro, both were
formatted NTFS, both logins were "ZOD", were
administrator, and had the same passwords.

Any suggestions as how to access my files?

Thanks, Dana Raymond
