Hidden folder not showing in Vista Home Premium

Hi there,
I had marked one of my folders (G:/Personal) as hidden sometime back.
Now, when i want to see the hidden folder, i am not able to do so,
even after doing the following.
1) Went to Folder Options--> View
2) Checked the "Show hidden files and folders" option.
3) Press "Apply" then "Ok"

But the folder does not appear at all.
The strange part is : after doing the above when i again open the
Folder Options dialog box, i see that the "Do not show hidden files
and folders" option is checked on its own.


After reading up on the net, i also tried after unchecking the "Hide
protected operating system files (Recommended)" option.

Not that, i think it should have anything to do with a user created
hidden folder... but still.. tried it out.
That does not work either.

Please help me resolve this.

Thanks a lot.
