    Vista File Permission Dilemma

    Hi all,

    I have 2 HDD which one is used for my OS and one for data. I was using Vista business X64 but decided to put on XP Pro. However after reformatting my OS HDD and putting on XP half my files are now hitting with me with "access denied. It is obviously looking for my Vista user account and will only let you open the folder / run the file. I have rebooted into safe mode and set myself as the owner and given all permissions. I am an admin on the machine as well.
    Anyknow how I can get around this or do I have to use datarecovery , ghost the drive and then set the permissions. I have attached a screenshot of the encryption that is on a particular file which is then asking about certificates.

    If anyone has any suggestions, thanks in advance.
