Hey people, i really hope you guys can help me... This is what happend.. My computer got a virus and when i open it, theres a NTLDR Missing showing in the start. So i decided to buy a new HDD which is now my primary and i formated it. I got my old one and used it as a slave. I scanned it already but i want to get my old files. So I went to the drive's Documents and Settings folder and tried opening the main user folder from the old HDD. I can't open it because i think i put a password when i wanted to log in before. I don't know if you guys understand but I really don't know how to explain it. Hope you guys can teach me how to copy that floder of mine to my new HDD. Thanks everyone!

Thank you for posting back and letting us know it worked! We hate being left hanging, wondering if we helped or didn't? Have a great day!
