Hello forum.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post, if it is incorrect please let me know and I will repost in the appropriate category.

I recently bought a new HD and did a fresh install. I hooked up my old HD as a secondary drive as it was (meaning I didn't format it or anything). I was hoping that I could just copy my files over, or use it as a media drive. My problem is, I can't access the main "my documents" folder. I am currently running XP and was also on the old HD. The primary account/login for the "my documents" folder that I am trying to access is password protected. Is there any way that I can retrieve that info?

thanks in advance for your help. and sorry if it is a little confusing. I'm not sure how else to explain it.
