Re: read error

I find no folder with that name. I click on the drive and it opens a list of files including "program files" and others but no "documents and setting" folder appears.

Re: read error

I slaved it and it is readable. Could I use a program to copy the whole drive to another HDD? What could have happened that I can get into it and see the files but it will not boot??
