Need some info about it to troubleshoot, most importantly, the OS you're running on the machine and which file system that you're formatted in.
Assuming a couple of thing (WinXP and NTFS file system with a user logged on and setup as an administrator) you can try this:
In Windows Explorer click Tools>Folder Options. Select the View tab, scroll to the bottom and uncheck Use Simple File Sharing. Click Ok and go back to Explorer.
Back in Explorer right click the folder and choose Sharing and Security and select the Security tab. Verify that your current user is listed as authorized with full control, if it won't allow changes to the user listings click on Advanced and then select Owner, check the box for Replace owner on subcontainers and objects, then click Apply and see if it grants you access.
If that doesn't work I sincerely hope that you didn't have that folder encrypted.
