Unable to delete or take ownership of folder (Windows 7)

I have a folder that I am unable to delete.


I also cannot take ownership.


The hard drive is one I have previously used in another PC, if this makes any difference.


When trying to take ownership it says it cannot display the current owner and when trying to take ownership selecting any group says access denied.


I've also tried via the command line using takeown however this too says Access Denied.


Windows 7, and I am logged in as an administrator.
