W2000 permissions

[Max Behan]

Dear all

I am working on a PC with 2000 sp3.
The user account is one with administrator priviliges.
It is a standalone machine.
When we try to add an .mdb driver resource through the
control panel/administrative tools, the directory we need
to put the data source in is not visible.
It is visible if viewed in file manager.
He does not know the default admin account password so I
am unable to use the original account.

How can I make the whole directory tree visible?

Thanks
Max Behan
