It's either the folder you trying to save to, your user account is not on
that folder with the proper permissions.

Or you don't have enough permissions, because even the user account with
Admin rights is locked down and your
rights have to be escalated.

Just what means/mechanism/program are you using to save the ASP file to the
root folder?

The root of a drive is protected in Vista. IIS isn't my area of
expertise so I don't know if you must save to a root folder or not. If
you have a choice, don't save there.

You might want to post in a newsgroup for IIS - the IIS experts there
will probably have your answer. Here is a list of all the MS public
newsgroups so you can find the right one for IIS:

An IIS or Inetpub wwwroot folder is not the same thing. An aspx file must be
saved to a folder under wwwroot for IIS to pick it up.
