    A windows XP installation has become corrupted and i am trying to gain access to the user files. Looks like the harddisk itself is physically intact.
    \documents and setting\%username is accesible. Subdirectories are visible, but all attempts to open those result in access denied.

    i installed the harddisk as a secondary harddisk to inspect it, but as i said i dont get access.

    Does anybody know how to get access to such user files?
