It's possible that since you started on your Windows 7 system that the USB drive picked up access permissions from Windows 7 that XP doesn't understand. I don't have it in front of me, You might want to right click on the file and look at the properties to see whether your XP user account has rights to the file. I've seen weird things like that happen when moving between Vista/Win7 and XP using an external USB drive.

Just a thought.
