I have 10.5.3 running without too many hiccups
I just installed Macfuse to be able to write to the ntfs drive that has my Win XP...
Im unable to see inside my Windows Documents and Settings... anyone know of a setting i can change to be able to see inside that folder?
Soul Ash

anyone know solutions?

How about this... can everyone else on leopard browse their Documents settings/Program Files/Windows directories without issue?

It works fine for me with Kalyway 10.5.2 and Windows Vista, read-only access since I don't have macfuse. I can browse my "C:\Users\<username>\Documents" folder and every other one (they changed the layout in Vista). My guess would be your problem is an XP permissions issue; you probably need to boot into XP and set the permissions on the folder, perhaps right now they're only set to "Creator/Owner" - hope this helps

I agree that the problem must be in windows since others dont seem to be experiencing the problem here. I have attempted to use the attrib -r +s "C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents" as found on this forum, http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=382874. Still no success. Any and all help would be much appreciated.

Fixed!!!
The problem was with Arconis Boot Selector... that damned thing had those folders as 'Restorable' or some such bull.
Removed them from that weird listing and i can see them in leopard no problem
DAMN YOU ARCONIS
