That seems fairly self explanatory: you don't have permission to
create files in the root directory of the C: drive.

By default, normal users only have permission to create files in their
"My Documents" directory. In Windows XP, you can change the
permissions via the Sharing tab (or the Security tab if "simple file
sharing" is disabled) in the properties dialog; I don't know about
Windows 7.
