Did she format this new drive? or did she want the old files that were off the other comp?

Man if you want decent help, then use decent punctuation. That is hard to read much less understand.

Sorry if I am being rude, I try to learn from these help threads also.

No man its all good i know i type bad. But she had all her music in this drive she just put in so formating it is out of the question. When she goes to play any song it gives her the access denied problem. So like wut is causeing this.

she needs to format the drive. Thats really bad it still had stuff on it. Get all of her stuff off of it.

Then go into control panel and go into adminstrative tools. the go into storage and local disk management. Pick the drive and rigfht click on it. Click reformat.

Done
