Bypassing Windows security

[Razor]

To cut a long story short, my windows installation was corrupted yesterday due to a failing harddrive. I have tried to repair the windows installation to get some files from my desktop but i couldn't, i can't boot into safe mode or even get into the command prompt. What i have had to do is to get a cheap, second hard drive and install Windows on that. Now my question is, the files on My Desktop on the failing hard drive contains files that i need, but i can't access the My Documents folder from that drive as it is protected, i can't even copy them over. Is there anyway to access that protected folder to get my files? Both hard drives are in my system and i can see both hard drives in My Computer, the broken one is drive f:.

I don't really understand the situation but I will say : GetDataBack for NTFS, maybe that'll help.

Windows uses your user password as the encryption key, so make a user on your new installation with exactly the same password. Then it should be able to read it IIRC.
