RE: deletiong files
Start > Run
Type "cmd" and hit Enter.
Then, use the command line to get to the folder and delete the files.
Useful commands:
    <drive>: - Switch to that drive
    cd - change folder
    del - delete file

RE: deletiong files
do you know how to use command prompt? if you do, try this:

create a windows boot up disk
boot computer from disk
try accessing e: from there
(to find out if it's the drive's problem or something else)

if e: doesn't work, then you know e: is fried and need reformating no way out
if it does work, well it's something else then

I hope that helps, because you should be able to delete it w/o windows preventing it.
