    Advice Please - Access Hidden NTFS Partition

    I need some help please -

    My nieces PC crashed and I'm trying to recover data from her C partition which is a NTFS partition. I've hooked up her HD to my system and can see the FAT32 partition without problem.

    In Disk Management when I right click on the NTFS partition I only get options to Delete Partition or Help, others are greyed out so I can't assign a drive letter.

    Any ideas?

    I'm running XP Pro.

    I don't think I can as I'm unable to view properties for the drive.
