Solve : ACCESS DENIED TO FLOPPY, DVD AND USB DRIVES?

1.	Solve : ACCESS DENIED TO FLOPPY, DVD AND USB DRIVES?
Answer» When I try to access either my FLOPPY, DVD or F DRIVE I get a message "Access is denied". There is also a message on the taskbar."Administrator has prohibited access to DVD drive " (or whatever drive I try to access). I am the administrator, I have not changed the settings. I have TRIED going back to a reset point to no avail. Any suggestions will be warmly welcome. How has this HAPPENED? how can I alter the access to the drives? I use Windows XP professional. Have you tried creating another user account with administrative rights? Many thanks for your interest. I will try out your suggestion when I get home tonight (uk time). Could you tell me if it is possible for a administrator to alter permissions to use the floppy, dvd and usb drive. If so how do you do this?. Best Wishes Ken
