Default Cannot open PST Files - error "File access denied. . ."

Running Outlook 2007.
Upgraded Operating system from XP to Vista. Could not upgrade and retain
old settings so I did a Clean Install.
Now. I can not open any of my PST files in outlook.

Error: File access is denied. You do not have permission required to
access the file D:\folder\filename.pst.

How do I fix this.

Use the Microsoft Knowledgebase to look up how to take ownership of files in
Vista.

problem.
