I don't know what it is but sometimes i randomly get these message box pop up's saying
'Error 5: Access Denied'?
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
It's not just one, when it does it, i get multiple?
I don't know if this is something with windows 8 but i can't relate it with anything?

The information you have stated isn't very helpful to be honest. Are you trying to run any programs when this message pops up? If so then your account may not have the correct privileges to be able to run the programs. If you are trying to run any program, right click the program icon and select 'Run as Administrator'.

If that solution did not work then please provide more information.

As Didact said. Error 5 is an Admin right problem. Make sure your account is an admin account and right click and select 'Run as admin'.
