    HDD Access

    Hi All

    First time post. Can anyone help.

    I have an old hdd that im trying to get some info from. The laptop it was in doesnt work any more so im just trying to get the info from it.

    The only problem is, that the info is stored in my documents which i cannot access as it was in a password protected user account. Obviously i cannot boot from the hdd as im using a different laptop.

    Using Win XP Pro with SP2

    Can anyone help????

    Thanks
    Martin
