The installation tips were written a rather long time ago when CVSNT used the global system temp folder, which in later Windows versions turned out to be protected by all kinds of access locks. So I suggested creating a separate temp folder like you have done. But now the CVSNT installer creates its temp folder directly below its install folder and sets the permissions on it such that it does work. So I suggest that you go back to the control panel and change the CVSNT temp folder to what it was before you changed it (<cvsnt install path>\Temp). Alternatively you can check the permissions on C:\CVSTEMP. There are two items that must be there: SYSTEM (Full control) Everyone (Full control) /Bo (Bo Berglund, developer in Sweden)
