After adding my Windows XP workstations to the domain the users get an access denied on the c: drive, it happens to all users that are in the domain users group. The only way around the problem for now is to add the domain users group to the local administrators or power users, but I don't want to this as a permanent solution.
This is a brand new install, default win2003 sp1 install.
Any suggestions?

By default, the workstation permissions on the C: are Read. They'll get access denied saving or trying to create anything on the root.
Three possible solutions:
Grant higher NTFS permissions on the C: drive of each individual workstation
-Or
Store files/folders in there profile where they have Full rights to, i.e. My Documents.
-Or
Use your server and teach them to save files/folders on network shares
