Norton System Works & XP Pro?

R

Rich

Hi,
I installed system works 2003 about a week ago after
installing xp pro.
Everything works fine but i have started getting
"Norton Protection" Attention
Access Denied Drive C

C is my main drive and this message comes up
each time i start or reboot the computer.
Everything loads and runs fine even if i don't
click on the "ok".

All norton settings are default.
My C drive is even shared on the network.
Any Suggestions as to what causes this?

thank's
Rich

per norton this is the fix all you had to do was go to
there site and search access denied drive c to find this
Error: "Attention: Access Denied, Drive C:" after
installing Norton SystemWorks

Situation:
You installed Norton SystemWorks (NSW) under Windows XP.
When the computer restarts, you see the error
message "Norton Protection, Attention: Access denied,
Drive C:." When you click OK, the error message
disappears, but the Norton Protected Recycle Bin is
disabled. This happens every time that the computer is
started.

Solution:
In most cases, this happens because you are using NTFS
and the Windows XP file permissions are not set
correctly. You must set Administrator and System to Allow
all actions. How you do this depends on your version of
Windows XP.
