My mother board recently died but I went out and bought another used computer and slaved my old hard drive and memory to it but because it’s not the bootable drive I am unable to access certain files that were password protected in the old drive. My question is would it be possible to do a one time boot with the old hard drive and the new mother board to retrieve that file? The operating system is xp. Or do I have to get an entirely new mother board and start over? Or maybe is there a wizard or program that will help me get this file back?? Please be easy on all the tech talk I am still learning allot of this stuff and very frequently have no idea what you guys are talking about....
