Folder protection messed up...

I had windows XP installed, and had the admins documents and settings protected, so other users couldnt see them, then I managed to mess up the other hard drive which happened to have the boot records on it (we wont go into it, a big fiasco involving linux and the grub bootloader) so I basically installed windows again on the other harddrive. So a total clean install of XP, unfortunately I now cant access the documents and settings folder on the other hard drive, it says access is denied. I cant descibe how frustrating this is, as it contains all my uni work, photos, art work, and music!

I hope someone can help me access the files there!

 

Logon with an admin account and take ownership. See 308421
