Strange Folder access issue.


Recommended Posts

I had to rebuild a system recently and after doing a standard install

of XP on a new disk attached the old disk to copy over documents.

 

The attached disk was the D: drive. The documents were located on one

of the profiles desktop folder. I copies over 6 different documents

folders into the administrators documents folder on the new disk.

 

Ok I remove the old disk. Now I have my main C: Drive and a CD ROM

drive D:.

 

When I click on the copied folders in the admins documents folder up

comes a message 'Please insert a disk in drive D:'

 

This is the original location of the documents. Doing a properties

on the entire folder reveals that the documents are there just

inaccessible. Clicking on the folder containing the documents make

the computer think that the contents are located on the old drive

not the new drive.

 

Any idea's how I correct this so i can access the documents in the

copied folders/

 

Thanks
