Hi Maudib. I also downloaded the latest Jmicron drivers and kicked a couple of things in bios. So far everything seems ok. Obviously I'm not the first one to run into this problem. Thanks a lot for your help. :thumbsup: Scratch

Greetings Maudib. I believe the solution (in my case) is to not use the Sata/Pata connection on the board or to disable Pata in the bios. I'm checking further, but I think I'm good to go. Virge, you want to weigh in? Scratch

Virge... You may have just saved my bacon here. (and Maudibs sanity);) My HDs were hooked into the two SATA/PATA sockets, so I switched them to the last two SATA only sockets. Everything seems to be OK. I have to check it out further in the AM. (Mom wants her dinner) But I'll bet at this point...

Yes...I do remember reading something about that in one of the forums. Board is a Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3R. Nicest board I ever had. If it has that bug, I wonder if Gigabyte has issued a fix? Oh...The reason I'm able to now write on the drives is that I forgot to turn the UAC back on. Guess I...

Sorry, don't know what a JMicron controller is, or why I might want one. ???

Please note: My post #30 should read simply Write, not write protection. Fixed. This morning I am able to access all drives in my log on, administrator slot. What did i do? Nothing! Beginning to think that Vista Isn't broken, just a little retarded.:confused: All drives were formatted with...

Double post (duh)

All I remember is a box weith ERROR printed on it. I can no longer get into my flight sim drive (G)as its WRITE protected. Even when the UAC is off. The only box in that drive thats checked *WRITE, is the USERS tab. Beginning to get the feeling that I'm going to have to reformat.:disgust...

Yes, still there. Shows full control. Still edits out write capabilities for all users even if I just try to lock out one. Then the only way to revert back is to take out UAC. Tried another drive and got an error message. Couldn't lock anyone out. Interesting. Wonder if this shouldn't be...

"Try it again logged in with the account with your name" Sorry... Same result. Apparently If I change something in the Security section it affects all the users. The only way I found to effect a correction to my actions is to take off the UAC. Make the correction and then turn on the UAC agaib.

When I did this I believe that an adminitrators account was set up. "In the Permissions for H:, hit the Add button. In the box for Enter the object names to select, type the name for your account, then hit the Check Names button. Doing that should fill in the path for your account. Hit ok...

To answer your questions in reverse: I was logged on to the computer in the new Administrator account that we set up. Your instructions were followed explicitly and exactly as worded. Are you saying that I should have been logged in under the new User that we set up in order to effect this...

Greetings Maudib, and thank you for your efforts on my behalf. I was successful in setting up the additional account and it seems to work well. I ran into difficulties with the second part of your instructions: "I'll use it to explain how to remove access to the H: for it." I went into...

"If that is the only account on your pc, then I think that is why you had issues." There are four (4) accounts listed in the Security tab for that drive: Authenticated Users (highlighted) System Administrator (my name) Users (my name) The last in that group (Users) was the only account...

"What version of Vista x64 " Spec 1 "what are the properties of the account that you were doing this with? " Not sure how to answer this.? "I ask because if it's the first created account like I suspect" Its one of the first files that I created in order to transfer pics on cd, which were...
