Please verify:
- If you have write permission for folder where standard parts are generaed from CC. This is given by Inventor project file -> Folder Options -> Content Center Files
- When you work with standard part with thread like bolts, nut, you need path to Thread.xls describing thread, it defined by Inventor project file -> Folder Options -> Design Data
Aslo for sure look Application Option -> File. There are aslo default settings for CC part location and Design Data.
I would recommend you
- activate Default project file
- when Default.ipj is active, create new your project file, make CC location to a local folder where you have write permitions, let default Design Data as C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Inventor 2008\Design Data\
- try if you are able to place CC content supplied by Autodesk, DIN, ISO
