Can't create new file/directory

- Subject: Can't create new file/directory
Hello all,
I recently re-installed cygwin, now I can't create a new file or
directory within cygwin. I even made a new directory using explorer.
Gave this directory the permissions everyone full control. In cygwin I
chmod to 777 on this directory. It lets me chmod and chown on files and
directories. But if I go in that directory and try to make a new file
or directory it says permission denied.
any ideas?
thanks,
