After spending hours on this issue myself below is the solution that worked for me on Windows 7 running IIS 7.5:
The application pool identity associated with the site was not a member of the IIS_IUSRS group. To add the app pool identity to the group I used the following steps:
Repeat steps 7 through 8 for each app pool identity you wish to add. Click OK.
Now the app pool identity is a member of the IIS_IUSRS group which should already have access to the Temporary ASP.NET Files directory. After all that I was still receiving the error and I found (thanks to process monitor) it was because the app pool identity could not write to the windows temp directory. To resolve this I added the IIS_IUSRS group to the windows temp directory with read/write permissions.
