Recover files encrypted with Windows XP

I recently installed Vista on my C drive. My D (data) drive contains Windows
XP encrypted folders which I cannot read anymore.

How can I recover this data?

thanks a lot

You need to use the Encryption Certificate that was created when you
encrypted the files on XP. Without this key, I'm afraid those files cannot
be recovered.
