help - can't create file

I am simply trying to create a file in access 2003. Receive an error
message that:
"Workgroup administrator couldn't create the workgroup information
file. Make sure that you have specified a valid path and file name,
that you have adequate permissions to create the file, and that you
have enough disk space on the destination drive"

Then another message appears stating:

Microsoft Access couldn't find file '@$#@$@#$@$'. This file is required
for startup.
Any ideas on this.

Thanks in advance,

Ed

Sounds like it can't find the default workgroup file (system.mdw). Try
doing a repair install of Office?
