permissions for drive where data is

Using SS2000 SP4. I have an account called "sqlserver" that I use to start
the SQL Server service and the SQL Server Agent service. This account is an
admin account in sql server. I moved a database from one drive to a new
drive. The database came up as read-only. The permissions on both drives are
the same.
Any ideas why the database came up read-only?
Thanks,
Dan D.
I just tried to detach the database again in code and got messages like these:
Running UPDATE STATISTICS on all tables
Updating dbo.dtproperties
Server: Msg 3906, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Could not run BEGIN TRANSACTION in database 'promo2007' because the database
is read-only.
I then tried to take the database offline in EM and it said the database
didn't exist. I then tried to rename the MDF file and I was able to.
Can I create a new database with the same name, detach it and put the
original MDF file in place and attach it again?
Thanks,
Dan D.
