How I would proceed would depend on how the system was broken.

Can you see the files?
Just see the drive?
Since it has a drive letter have you ran a check disk on it?Comment

This is a fairly common issue, suggest you add βtake ownershipβ to your desktop which should allow access to your files. See this guide here, at the bottom is the link to the registry hack which will save you manually editing the registry.
The guide says it works for Vista, but it will work for later versions of Windows too.
There are alternate ways of getting your info providing the drive is not damaged, let us know if the above doesnβt work?Comment
