Hello All.

I been having trouble getting access to the files on my multi-drive win xp pro system. The system has 4 250gb maxtor drives. The main drive is divided into 3 partitions.

1. for the os
2. for recovery
3. for data

The other drives are for storage.

It appears that all drives are functioning correctly on all drives except D: and all files and folder on D:\.

I had to re-install xp on this system. Before the re-install all drives were accessable normally.

I have tried changing the sharing options on this drive but things are still acting the same. (access denied on D

I even changed myself to the owner of these files in SAFE MODE on both my account and the administrator account. I think i'm the owner of the drive as well.

In SAFE MODE on the security tab I checked the box for full control. No services appear to denied.

Can someone tell me where & how to access the SID on winxp?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
