    Permissions problem XP vs Win 7

     
    Hi
    I am trying to recover some files from a friends pc. His cpu croaked and he has moved on to a new pc. However, there are files he wants off his old pc which was running win xp. I pulled the hard drive and installed it as a slave on my pc, which is running Win 7 Home premium 64 bit. I can see the files he wants but when I try to copy them to my hard drive I keep getting denied because I don't have "permission". How can I work around this issue?
    Thanks in advance
    Arjay

    this should help, its say windows xp to vista but it should basically be the same steps for W7

    Troubleshoot "access denied" when opening files or folders
