Hard drive problems after win 2k install
Hello,
I was running windows 2K proffesional and just decided to upgrade to XP-Pro. I have a secondary hard drive I use for backup files and reinstall information which I had specific permissions set on thru win2K. Whenver I reinstalled win2K pro I would have to go into the drive settings and reset access to it, so the "new" owner of the computer could access it. Apparently every fresh install it thought the drive had changed hands. Well now that i've switched to XP the options for setting drive permissions no longer exist in any form I can recognize. The drive is there, and working and I can see the file structure through the computer managment app but every time I attempt to access D:\ I get a "D:\ is not accessible" message. This is the same problem I had in 2K but no I can't seem to find a way to give myself access to the old drive anymore???? Any help is GREATLY appreciated, Aaron |
