I had to put in a new mother board in a Dell computer with Windows XP Media
Center installed.

When I booted the computer Windows start fail with a blue screen. After much
research I decided to do a repair install. But when the computer restarted
after the file copy segment the same error came up and Windows would not go
into the rest of setup.

So I loaded Windows as a side by side install. That went very well. But now I
cannot get into the old My Documents folder to move the files and pictures to
the new My Documents folder. I tried to reset the properties on the folder
but they will not reset (Access Denied).

Any One know how to get around this?
Thanks Loretta
