how can I recover data from a password protected hard drive?
I have a laptop which has bitten the dust. I got a hard drive enclosure to recover the pictures I have stored on it. Only problem is - The Windows XP account which they were stored in was protected with a password and the hard drive will not let me access it. Is there anywhere I can put in the password or any way around this security feature? Reinstalling the hard drive in the machine isn’t an option (its completely dead) Thanks!

if you use an enclosure windows will see it as a second drive. You should not have to worry, unless it is fully encrypted.
