What do you mean "ownership"? How would I do that?Liquidlen said:You might find that you will have to take ownership of some of your files in the new system, you will know when you find some files are now Read Only.Other than that there should be no issues, as long as there is no O/S on that drive.
Samstoned said:you have to reset permission or ownership of drive in security advanced settings (XP pro)
in XP home try on boot F8 safe and then you can get to security
tick the box below that says replace permission on child objects
go to tab (owner0
see if it says administrators or has a strange number letter setting
add you name if you are admin or add administrators
remove other id
some systems you will not have to do this
as far as files should all be accessable as far as loaded programs you will have to reload
your new OS has not put the programs in reg or listed any dlls they might need

This same thing happened to me a month ago. Could you please explain (pretty please) step by step in lamen terms. I want to archive this for future use. I had to use a third party program because I couldn't find the answer.
Thank you so much!
