xxsassxx31,
Chad has gone to great lengths to provide help with this problem. Please take the time to provide a methodical reply stating each technique you have used and the response your computer has provided. This will allow Chad to quickly tune his answers to the help you need. We understand your frustration, but it is far more important to know exactly what each step produces as results and to positively know that each step has been tried. Best wishes.

Gosh! Just connect the drive into a second computer and strip off what you
need. People do it all the time. If you cant find another laptop that has 2 drive bays, install it into an external drive case and transfer over the files via the USB port on a 2nd computer. -- Richard Urban Microsoft MVP Windows Desktop Experience "xxsassxx31" wrote in message ...

I can't even locate the folder it says it is "restricted" and obviously I don't have administrative access to get to it and I can't access it the other way mentioned on that link as I am truly limited in what to do... btw...My Drive D is a "HP System Recovery" Partition....and the problem I have now is my memory is full and I would have to delete some files in order to make it work....and obviously that would be in dos mode. If I went and bought an external hard drive (the type that you plug in with usb) would I be able to install the Vista to the external hard drive and then once I do that save my files that I need and then be able to install it back on C? I think that is what I am thinking of doing but I wanted to verify that this method would work. I want to just thank you guys again and thank this great forum for all the help you have provided to me. I have just been literally driving myself crazy over this....thanks again.. -- xxsassxx31 |

btw my drive is only about 140 GB full so I can simply buy a usb harddrive bigger than that and transfer all my files and then format C: and install a clean vista on a formatted C....but what steps would I take or where would I transfer all the files to the other hard drive to have it accessible on the other harddrive?? -- xxsassxx31 |

I did a little research and said F it....let me just delete the files inside my recovery drive (it is about 10 GB full!) since it is the backup of recovery disks etc it made so I am installing my operating system on there right now and we will see what happens....I just got tired of waiting and I do have Windows OEM disc so that should be sufficient for what was stored in there... -- xxsassxx31 |

Ok...I installed Vista on the "recovery drive" so now it seems like I have 2 Vista's installed....we will see what happens... -- xxsassxx31 |
