If this is with Win98, it is a bug in Win98 that when it tried to create
a "missing" RECYCLED directory in the root of a drive where you do
not have permission to create one it, it pops up an error message.
This happens when you empty the recycle bin, it goes thru all the 
drives and tries to create the RECYCLED directory.  The workaround is
simple, just create such a directory where-ever you have a drive rooted.
The error message does not actually stem from any real problem because
it is ok to not have a RECYCLED directory there.
With Win4Lin 3.0, there will be such a directory in the root of
the J drive, so you will not see this problem unless you create a new
drive letter that points to a read-only directory.
