Access to my docs after Paralell Install 1

[Phylis]

Hi

Im sure it is something really simple but....

I have a dell inspiron 5150 which after a few years loyal service decided to give up on me - after speaking to the guys at dell, they advised me to perform a paralell install to enable me to retrieve my "my documents" folder - this i have done.

the problem is that although i can find my old "my documents" folder inc\documents and settings it gives me an access denied message when i try to open/copy/move it.

how can i access/gain control over it? - i am logged in as the administrator in the new install.

Thanking you in advance

Phylis
