Looks like a windows system, are you sure they are fully writable?
If all else fails, use a bigger hammer.

You are doing this on your computer and must be using wamp or something, I use xampp on mine and it works just fine, but one of the things it says is to put it on your main, C, drive...

WHen you deleted all files, I think you deleted tmp\cache and tmp\templates_c folders as well... These are needed when installing...

Earlier I asked for a screenshot of the Content -> Pages view, I havent seen that so far, as that miight have told something as well...

I'm using the controlpanel for the webhotell to access the files to change the permissions.

I deleted all files and uploaded a fresh download of CMSMS to reinstall. So I have nothing saved from the old site were I could only access the admin part. This is a fresh installation were I don't have any information in the DB nor any old files on the site. All I have done is uploaded the files, went to the page, got the error screen for permissions. Fixed those and when I reloaded the screen loads blank.

Perhaps, they have verified that nothing is wrong and the permissions are correct

Robert,

when doing a complete new install, make sure that ALL files are transferred AND transferred correctly. I use FileZilla for transfer, and transfer in smart-mode....

Yes. Unless the http error log gives the clue.
How are plain old static html pages and helloworld.php doing there ?

If I understand well you are trying to install CMSms 1.6.4 (for the official base tarball) on a Windows host throught FTP.
Have you tried the system checksum while installing ?
Do you have some Windows expert at hand that could tell how to mimic 777 with the mouse ?

If you still have your install with broken frontend please provide the System Info and System Verification from the admin.

BTW why do you chose Windows as a PHP hosting solution ?
