Well I just put together my new PC and the hard drive I had in it previous is being a bit weird.

At first it was showing as a foreign drive, I right clicked and imported the drive. That gave me access to partition, O and H.

Partition A I did the usual become owner and have full permission but it is being weird. All the file/folder names are in blue and when I try and delete a file I get "The recycle bin on A;\ is corrupted. Do you want to empty the recycle bin for this drive?"

When I try to open any file (which isn't in the root of the drive) I get error messages about permissions.

Anyone got any suggestions?
Thanks.
 
Well, I don't think that was there with my old motherboard anyway. I don't see why there should be a 100 MB partition anyway, this was never a Windows drive so it's not the system reserve. Unsure why the drive is is a simple partition either while the others are primary partitions.

Umm yeah I did I think. I've tried multiple times with the Permissions and ownership etc. I seem to be able to access all files now and deleting things isn't a problem.
Every file/folder is still blue though and folders in the root of the partition have a lock icon next to them.
