You're having access problems, because Windows 7 won't let you access the Program Files directory, see here for more information, and where you should store the files: http://windowsteamblog.com/windows/b/developers/archive/2009/08/04/user-account-control-data-redirection.aspx

you should add the file as a resource to the installer or put it within the same directory level of the installer. Hard coding file paths within setups dont work on machines other than yours.
