  1. this is ownership probelm

    so right click the folder >sharing&security> security>advance>owner>select the user>check replace owner>ok

    check it ...........


  2. What is the other operatingsystem what kind of file is on the other system

  3. Are you sure you didn't format the entire harddrive?

    If not make sure the other drive is in the NTFS or FAT format.


  4. First make sense of your question.

    You cannot access the folder on the second operating system without  a program that will boot that operating system.

    You can only access one operating system at a time and not both together.

    You need to have a program that will prompt you for which operating system you wish to access.


  5. You open it

  6. NTFS file ownership permissions doing it's job.

    Here's a Microsoft KB article explaining how to assume ownership over a file: http://support.microsoft.com/default.asp...
