Just added a new hard drive to my pc and made my old drive a slave. The slave
still has files on it, but i can't copy and paste. Access denied. I did have
a password on XP on my old drive. Could that be the problem? I really need to
import my outlook files into my email that i set up on the new drive.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Bilbo

You need to take ownership of the files. Take a look here for
the procedure:
