I recently upgraded my server from just a simple workgroup fileserver, to a domain controller. Now I have noticed that one of my folders on one of my hardrives is giving me access denied when I am logged in as the administrator account. I've checked the security settings on the folder, and the drive. I should have total control, yet I still get access denied. Please explain how this could ever be possible??? It is quite frustrating being told I do not have control over my own hard drive. Thanks,

It is a subfolder to my girlfriends network folder. Simply called Music. She doesn't have access, nor does my Administrator accounts.

You might need to simply reclaim ownership, and then reapply your access rights to it. Sometimes a previous permissions assignment can go haywire, and you'll get prompted with something like "the permissions on this object are out of order, please click 'ok' to fix this" or similar.
