I am looking for some urgent help. I had a Windows XP desktop whose motherboard died two days ago. But as i already have a brand new desktop running on Windows Vista, i left that died PC as it is and removed its hard drive as it is containing several important datas.
Problem is when i copy the old hard drive on my new PC running with 500GB Hard Disk, it gets detect properly but am facing problems copying files from the older drive. I've had this drive in here for the last several months and have had no problems writing other files to this 'older' drive. Whenever i try copying the files, it gives me an error message saying:
"You'll need to provide administrator permission to copy to this file."
Let me tell you that the error occurs only while copying the files from "My Documents" folder. On this new system i am logged in as administrator. What could be the problem? How can I fix this so I can copy/backup my files in the My Documents folder? Somebody please help.
