Cannot acces my old profile folder...

[the1bigboy]

I reinstalled windowsXP over XP, my old profile folder is still in Docs&settingd, when I try to get in it tells me im not allowed in cause im so stupid not to backup profiles. Is there anyway to get in, im on xp pro and admin settings.

Do you think I should by a monkey, it's cheaper and better than windows

I have yet to see that specific error message. Interesting. I wish they wrote more error messages like that.
