Hmmm, file access on NTFS drives goes really crazy, when you use files that have created on another machine. (E.g. you take an NTFS-formatted mobile hard disk to your friend and carry files home via that.) Grab the ownership back to yourself.

For English Windows XP: right-click on the game directory, select "Sharing and Security", go to the "Security" tab, press "Advanced", go to the "Owner" tab, select your user from the "Change owner to:" list, enable "Replace owner on subcontainers and objects" and press a few OK's. Did that help?
