Okay, here's the problem..
On my main PC I have a windows XP pro operating system. About a month ago, it started telling me that varios drivers were corrupted or that it couldn't find them, but I could still access the computer, and uninstalling/reinstalling the devices restored them to working order..
2 weeks ago, it started doing this with the mouse driver.. Meaning I had to use my keyboard to log in, then reinstall the mouse and then I could use it, still no big deal...
Now it won't even use the keyboard driver, which is a big problem, because I have no way of logging in now... A friend suggested just copying all of my files to a new hard drive, and that should fix it.. One problem, the files are set to "Private" on the username for that instalation of Windows XP.. So it says I can't access them
I can't do a repair install, because I have no windows XP Pro install disc.
Any help on this subject would be appreciated.. I really need to get into the files on that PC.
