| | Transferring files from Slave XP hard drive to new Vista Hard drive - primary I am having no luck moving music, pics etc. from a XP hard drive to a Vista hard drive. I had a common issue, computer failed and tryingto salvage data to the new drive. Is there anything that works? Tried changing permission on files, folders and drive. It will copy the folder structure then wont move the files. NO permission. Any ideas? |

| | Re: Transferring files from Slave XP hard drive to new Vista Hard drive - primary Hi, When you change permissions, actually take ownership of them. And, make sure you check the box to have the change propagate to all subfolders and containers. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org My thoughts http://rick-mvp.blogspot.com <Scootermc50@gmail.com> wrote in message news:1179934286.754020.300880@q66g2000hsg.googlegroups.com... >I am having no luck moving music, pics etc. from a XP hard drive to a > Vista hard drive.
