I recently suffered a total computer breakdown.  I recovered the hard drive
and connected it to the replacement system to enable file transfers etc.  
However the majority of the work is not detected by the new system.

Two thoughts occur.  Firstly the missing work appears to be all done under
my administrator password protected User Account.  Secondly the new system is
Vista whereas the old one was XP.

Is there any procedure to recover the missing files?  In reply please spoon
feed infor (ie: click this click that).  I am computer competant but
certainly not expert!
