Lost access to folders in XP-SP2

I've just lost acces to a number of folders on a logical XP NTFS volume. The big 
question is how to restore that.
The data is still there - checked via chkdsk an degrament analysis.
The odd thing is, that on this particular drive I now have acces to System Volume 
Information which I normally don't.  Can anyone offer a hint ?

I would say your partition table is corrupted.
Run 'fixmbr' and 'fixboot' from the Recovery part on your XP CD.
If that doesn't work, then google for "WinXP fix partition table".
