Comment: Hi there, I have 2 hdd's, each with a windows XP install. I want to boot into one of the xp's and get files from the other win xp install's 'my documents' area, which is secured with level 1. How can i grant myself access to these documents? basically, C:\ and E:\ are windows installs, and i want to boot into E:\ and transfer files from C:\Documents and Settings\USER\My Documents\*.* to E:\WHERE_EVER\HERE.. thanks for you help! Dave

Reply: You didn't read the MSKB thoroughly. If you did it you knew you would have to boot to safe mode to access the security tab. Please read it again. i_XpUser
