Loaded Access 97 on my new Vista Machine and got the above message when I
tried to start Access. How do I fix this ?
 
Vista has more stringent rules about who, and how you can write to the
System32 (or Windows for that matter) folder. If you have another machine
with and unsecured system.mdw file try to copy it to your new one. If it
lets you, you are fine, if not you'll need to work with someone in a Vista
newsgroup to figure out what the problem is.
 
Guess the other solution is to reload XP and forget about Vista...........
