Freedom is not FREE.
Yeah, but 10s of Trillions of US Dollars?

New I assume you tried something like this, then.
[link|http://www.techspot.com/vb/topic8914.html|TechSpot]. The thread has pointers to MS KB articles.

Just in case...

Good luck. I think you'll need it. :-(

Cheers,
Scott.
New Yeah, I read that article.
When I click on properties of a folder I need to take ownership of the security tab doesn't even appear. It only appears on folders that aren't a problem.

Yes, I did try starting at the parent folder and selecting to propagate to subfolers. All I get is "not accessible" errors on any such subfolers.

Yes I ran scandisk (from the desktop and from the repair console).

Either Vista has changed something or this filesystem is munged beyond hope of recovery.

Incidentally, I sometimes get "Folder not accessible, may have been moved or deleted" errors as well as "Access Denied" - but what does that mean? Even Bill Gates admitted Windows error messages are next to meaningless.

Rescue CD that claims latest Windows file system.

New Well, it saved a lot of time setting up NTFS-3g . . .
. . but no luck. The "\\Documents and Settings" structure is still empty and the critical directories in the "\\Users" structure still show 0 files. Files cannot be created in or copied to those directories.

I read the NTFS-3g FAQ and found no reference to not being able to see any files that were actually there - so I suspect the filesystem on this disk is just munged beyond hope.

New So you gonna set her up with...
OS/2 or Linux?

New Are you kidding?
Set up a teenage girl with something other than what's in fashion with her pals? She'd be ridiculed, ostracized, banished and banned - and talked about in hushed tones behind her back. She'd be deeply scarred for life (and might actually amount to something) - no, I can't take that responsibility.

I'll take this part:
