I was doing an up grade on xp pro with xp pro (dont
ask). It started to do the upgrade until the system tried
to login and i got an error say something about
registration is invalid. I Figured it was just a bad
install so i did it again and got the same result. So
last try to fix things it installs and windows comes up
but now it made its own directory instead
of "D:\Documents and Settings\Moose" (this was is in
Winnt in NTFS format)it is now in a new
directory "D:\Documents and Settings\Moose123".(there is
also a new directory from one of the bad installs now
called "WINDOWS" along with Winnt folder) Now i see the
old file Moose But i cannot access it i get error is not
accessible access denied. I know the files are there
volume of drive on partition 2 is 20GBs instead of 35GBs
and some of the files like example in my music folder
show they are they and MB size are correct but i cannot
access them. Oh and i did try to do a restore but those
backup files are gone.
Please someone help i have some really important pictures
and documents i need to recover. Im not sure what other
info i need to supply here that would be useful so just
ask. Thank you for your time and support.
