need help

My motherboard died on my old computer which was running XP home
edition with SP2 installed. I got a new computer (from scrap yard)
which also has XP home edition with SP2 installed. My XP edition is
registered with microsoft.

On my old computer I had 2 profiles set up administrator(my account)
and a guest account. I installed my old drive as a slave in the new
computer and can see shared files and all of the programs on it, but
can not see my personnal stuff (all my music, files and photo's). When
my old computer died it had about 27 gig on it and when I installed the
old HD as a slave it has about the same amount on it.

I did a search of the old dirve and it is not finding any of my old
files.

Any help would be great.
 
Great advise, but my old drive is FAT32 and the new one is NTSF so the
ownership does not apply to the old drive.
