Can you send a snapshot of C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wp-content and C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wp-content\uploads ?
From new build or old?

both?

From IIS 7 forum.. found fix.
You need to make sure your application pool user for the site has modify permissions to the uploads folder.

What does that mean exactly? Could you explain it in newbie terms for me. Thanks!
If your using IIS 7 this worked for me.. not sure in other situations..
Here is what I did.
Drill down to directory folder WP-Content. In this folder is a folder called uploads..
Right click go to properties. choose security tab and choose IUSR. Give this user write persmission it should have these permissions checked:
List folder contents
Read
Write
permissions. This worked for my problem.Hope this helps.
Cheers.
