Have posted this before but it seems the then solution is no longer working.

Asus P5K mobo, 4G RAM, Intel Core2 Q6600 Quad Core (GO) CPU, Windows Vista
Ultimate x64.

I have a Western Digital 750G SATA2 HDD connected to the JMicron controller,
as my third HD. Lately it has again become 'write protected', in that all
the proper access permissions are available to all users, but you can't
write/delete/modify the contents as Windows says the disk is write protected.
The most recent driver is installed, and the controller is set as AHCI since
the e-SATA port is also on this controller.

What can I do to resolve the issue (I use this drive considerably and now
cannot)?

Got the same error here!

With an WD elements 500gig external harddrive.. usually a reboot does
the trick, but it's really annoying! :mad:
