    Hi could someone please help, After my system crashed i resorted to buying a new pc! I moved my old hard drive to a firewire external case hopeing to retrieve my old files but i believe they are all encrypted. I still have my old log in password but do not know how to gain access to my old files? which when i try to access just flag up as access refused. Thanks for any help!

    If they are encrypted, the info posted above won't get you there.
