I know snow leopard was supposed to include drivers for bootcamp so that you could explore the HFS+ file systems from windows, BUT its not working for me. I am able to see folders, but i don't see any files. Say if i go to go to Users -> myuserdirectory -> then the folder is just empty.
is anyone experiencing this? I don't want to pay for macdrive and HFSExplorer is wack and isn't working for me.

Works fine for me. I'm using the 32 bit version of Windows 7 Home Premium with the Snow Leopard Boot Camp 3.0 drivers loaded. I can read folders, files, and even see hidden system files on the Mac side from my Windows Explorer and my Windows File Manager.
Which version of Windows 7 are you using? 32 bit, 64 bit?
Note: Apple will officially support Windows 7 sometime in December when they will probably publish an update to Boot Camp.
All I can suggest to you is to try reinstalling the Windows drivers from your Snow Leopard DVD.
yeah i tried reinstalling them before, I'm using the 64bit version of windows 7. I was at the apple store and got some valuable information.
1.) my problem should be fixed in the bootcamp update in december
2.) My macbook pro model (4,1) has a problem with windows 7, a high pitch noise (i heard this and thought it was CPU whine) that is caused by something to do with screen brightness. Turning down the brightness lowers the volume of the noise. This too will be fixed in the next update in december.
basically windows 7 will be completely compatible in december.
