hey guys..thnx fer replying. Please allow me to rephrase my problem. The said folder was made private on the original machine. Is there no way to access it on the new machine? The size shown is still zero and i did not encrypt the data. Only made it private there. Is there no way at all ? Thanks again, Piyush

Hi all I am a newbie to the group and it is my first post...so pls excuse if i am violating a rule I had windows XP lock 'My Documents' folder on my AMD 64-bit machine. Then i removed the hard disk from that machine and attached it as a secondary HDD to a pentium III machine. Btw...i had changed the default path of the 'My Documents' folder on the original machine. The new machine also runs Windows XP + SP2. It shows the size of the folder as 0 bytes and when i click on the folder, an error message 'Access is Denied' pops up. Please advise me a way out as it has some really important documents and there is no way i can attach it back to the original machine. I would really appreciate any help you could give. Thanx for your time, Cheers! Piyush
