The hard drive is Windows XP formated in NTFS

My friends windows install will not start, not even in safe mode. So I connected her hard drive to my computer and the file structure is intact but I cannot copy the My Documents folder because the system is password protected. How do we get around this?

I have a friend who lives in the country and can only get internet via a USB only Wireless satellite modem. But he also has a set top box that needs to access the net via ethernet connection. Am I able to connect the computer to the net via the USB, and then have the stb connect to the net via the ethernet port on the computer, like a loop thru? Is this even possible?

I am working on the following setup. Phone Line > Modem > Server > Switch > 7 Workstations The server is running Windows 2003 and has two ethernet ports, one to accept the Modem (incoming), the other to output to the Switch (outgoing) Well the other day I changed our internet provider and got a new modem. But the internet does not work anymore. The internet works fine when connecting a Workstation directly to the new modem, but when you connect it through the server in the usual way something is blocking access. I think that Win 2003 is set up in a secure fashion and something needs to be changed. IP settings? Please give me some ideas of where to start. Thanks
