Hi anthony and brittney!

i have the same problem that she is having except my
computer is a desktop system meaning that i took the hard
drive out and hooked it up with my other computer using
windows 2000. i set it up as a secondary hard drive and
was able to access all my files that way. my problem was
though that all my importent files are in my password
protected user folder! is there anyway to get around this?
or is there a way that i can copy this folder and burn it
to a cd and then once i reinstall my computer that i put
that my locked user folder back on the computer using that
burned cd and set my account back up with the exact
settings as before but then i just copy over the folder
from the cd to replace the files on the newly installed
computer??? please help!!!
