Hi, According to your description, it seems the problem with folder permission. I suggest login to Safe Mode with your administrator account, then try these steps: Then, try to access this folder again to see the result. Take ownership of folders ==================== 1. Open My Computer and open the C drive. 2. Enter Windows folder, find out and right click on inf folder and choose Properties. 3. Choose the "Security" tab and see if "Administrators" is listed in the "Group and User" name list. If not, please click the Add button and type "Administrators" in the open window and click "OK" to add this group. 4. Highlight "Administrators" and check "Full Control" under "Accept". 5. Click the "Advanced" button and choose the "Owner" tab. 6. Highlight the "Administrators" user group in the list and mark the check box before "Replace owner on subcontainers and objects". 7. Click "OK" to save changes and wait for Windows XP to transfer ownership of all the objects on the partition. 8. Click OK again to save changes and exit the Properties window. Hope it helps.
