no way of changing it? it all works but i cant access my documents under my name "iTank" is the harddrive borked or could it be something else?

in my machine it wont boot the drive, when using it as a slave in another machine i can access it, but not my folders due to the password protection. i believe.

id like to get files off the drive and also get to boot in my normal machine.
