Copied a real "My Pictures" folder to Vista and can't remove it

After replacing a hard drive that was going bad on my laptop running Vista Home Premuim, I was copying some files that I had previously backed up to the new drive. I accidently, copied an actual directory named "My Pictures" to the new drive under the "Pictures" directory. Now I can't get rid of it. I've taken ownership of it, etc., and I still can't rename it, delete it or delete any files in the directory. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks.
