Helpful post their Alex, don't know what we would do without it ....
Restart in Safe mode (run> msconfig .... boot.ini .. safe mode) and log on as administrator, find the folder (most likely in c drive, documents and settings), then right click, and set your user name you use now to take ownership. That should work.

No, I am reffering to my local network, not over the net.

Ok, thanks, I will try that right now.
(I tried to boot into safe mode of the drive that had it stored on it... didnt boot)

Good question mate and not something Ive come across before. But, I'm sure that by taking ownership in the same way (so both partitions have the same owner), you should be bale to then copy and paste the folders over, then restart in normal mode.

Hmm, well this is interesting. The taking over permissions worked great in safe mode - I could listen to songs and stuff, but when I booted into regular windows, it still says access denied. I assumed that it was because there was two options and one was Administrator and the other was Administrators. Well I went back and chose admins and rebooted and I still get the error.
?? :helpsmile:

This can be a problem and something which takes me ages of going back and forward. But the easiest thing to do is to actually move the folder to where you want it to be on your new hard drive, then change the ownership again making sure all child objects and sub folders are ticked and that should work.
Good luck
