Hi,

Win XP have been crashed. Startup with blue screen. Even in safe mode.

There are some very important documents on it. Now I have connected the harddrive on to another pc. I can see all the files, I hav even removed the virusses, but when I want to open the floder of the person I get Acces Denied. I can't replace the permissions, I even can't copy the folder. Is there something so that I can get to the files?? NTFS partition.

You have to connect that hard drive as a slave drive to another system. Then make sure you log onto that other system as an Administrator.
You should then be able to copy over the data from the "bad" machine's hard drive (if not, you have to Take Ownership of the file or directory).

Here's a way to recover from system file failures that cause that blue screen:
