    I moved My Documents into my D:/ drive.
    How did you do that ?? Try booting into safe mode using the default 'Administrator' account and then change it.
    If nothing else works, open command prompt and type 'del C:\Windows'

    They call me the mysterious one...

    Thanks.

    My last option would be to reinstall Vista as I like things to be neat and tidy.. (I'm a perfectionist says my friend)
