D Drive is Access Denied after Windows 7 Reinstall

Greetings, I previously had a post under "Network and Sharing
https://www.sevenforums.com/network-sharing/26705-no-networks-connect-very-weired.html" that I resolved by reinstalling Windows 7.

My computer has one hard disk that I partitioned to C: and D:, C: has the operating system and D: has my data. After reinstalling Windows 7, I tried to access D: but I received "Access Denied" error. In computer management, the drive is present, Windows can see it but it cannot access it.

Any help to enable me to access my D: drive would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you all.

Hi there.
I have five words for you : Take Ownership of the partition.

Check this link up : Take Ownership Shortcut

Hope this help.

Take ownership is not enough.

You also need to add either your username or one of the following users:
administrators, users, or authenticated users.

If you don't know how, search this forum.
If you really can't find it, check back here.
