Can't Access My Account

[Guest_imported]

Hey, i have windows xp and when i turned my computer on the other day it wouldn't load and said i had an error in a windows system file. it said to insert the xp cd and try repair it but that failed so i reinstalled xp. Everything works now but my old account was password protected and now i can't access it. it doesn't appear on the logon screen or in the users in control panel. it is in the Documents and settings folder but it says access denied when i try to open it. it is all there as it takes up space on my hard drive i just can't get into it. Any ideas?

Thanks

Open Help, and do a search on ownership. There's a task listed Take ownersip of a file or folder. That should help you.
