windows vista

i'm not being able to install some softwares viz.. gtalk,adobe reader etc.. which stops by a warning message saying either the TEMP folder is not accessible or the drive which has that folder is full....
but i've checked the drive n theres still like 35 gigs free on it ..

It shouldnt happen. Try switching off User Account Control (UAC).

Does the user account,that you are using, have admin priveleges ?

Are u the admin???
then there is a small script for taking ownership of folders...
Install that and then go to my documents and take ownership of all the appdata folder..try tthe script, its simple, and this should solve it,assuming u havent changed the default vista folders...

Add Take Ownership Option To Files and Folders Context Menu in Vista My Digital Life
enjoy...
