Domain Accounts on local PC

I just upgraded to Vista Ultimate from XP pro. I did a clean install
of Vista so it didn't inherit any of my old settings.

My problem is this: On my old PC, I added my domain account to my XP
pro computer. I logged in under this account and did my thing. Now,
post-upgrade, there doesn't seem to be the ability to give my domain
account permission to log into my Vista PC. Soooooo, I have all these
files who's owner is an account that Vista doesn't know about (my old
domain account). The only way to open these files is to log in as the
administrator.

My question is: Can I add my domain account to this Vista PC? If not,
is there a quick way to change the ownership for my zillions of files
currently under ownership of my old domain account?

Thanks in advance.
