Re: How do I access My Documents on a slaved harddrive?

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Are you getting an 'access denied' message? If so you might like to try
taking ownership of the file/folder. Visit my website
http://xphelpandsupport.mvps.org Click the Win XP Faq button and take a look
at question 58

Alternatively, if you have a retail version of windows xp (rather than a
recovery disk), you might try making your slave drive the master and then
performing a repair install. (again see question 55)

Did your new motherboard come with a cd containing drivers for the
motherboard? This may be the reason why your keyboard/mouse don't work
because the slave copy of windows hasn't got the new motherboard drivers
installed.
