Default XP security

I have a problem...
My C: was infected with various parasites (spyware,
adware and such), so I installed XP Prof. on my D:.
I then deleted everything on the C: (save the stuff I
wanted, which I moved to D because XP wouldnt let me
format the c: because there was an existing versip\on of
XP.
The problem is, now that I again re-installed XP Prof. to
the C:. I now can't lod XP from the D:. Let me
elaborate - I moved all the files from C: to D:
originally - my music, movies, and pictures. I put them
in the 'D:\documents and settings\jesse' folder which I
protected. But now that I cant load XP on the D:, i cant
get to my files.

Down to the point - can anyone help me with either:
1: Bypassing the XP protection so I can get to the d:
protected folder from the C: Admin.
2: Somehow telling my computer to load from the d:
(tried changing the drive load order- didn't work)
3: any other ideas?

email me- any help will be appreciated!
