Old hard drive in a new computer

    I messed up my old computer's motherboard and can't turn it on anymore. I got a new computer and put the hard drive from the old computer into the new one as a slave drive.

    My problem is, I had a folder with all my favorite things on the desktop of my old computer. All my favorite pictures, videos, games, programs, etc. So, I'm looking in the old harddrive, and I can't find the folder. I went into /Documents and Settings/ and any user, but the folder isn't in any of the desktop folders in there. There is an Owner folder, but everytime I click it, I get this message that says, \Documents and Settings\Owner is not accessible. Access is denied.

    I would reallllly like to get that folder back, there are many good memories in those pictures. Is it gone since it was on the desktop or is there anyway I can get it back? Any help would be great... please. Thank you.
