Sorry guys but I forgot to mention that I am running elxis on Windows Xp....Could anybody show me the way of succeding my instalation?I know that I have to change the rights to this folder but how do I do that? By adding a .htaccess file maybe? Don't know really confused

First of all this symbol ; means start of comment. You should uncomment that line.

To apply permissions on Windows XP:

Right click the tmp folder and select "Properties"
Go to Tab "Security"
Check "Full Control" for the current user you are logged in or the IIS user.
Click "Apply" and "OK"

If you are using XAMPP on win XP , it should has write permission on all folders and files , so do u have any problem now ?
does the installation show you that the folder is not writable ?

thanks guys for your help!
 finally the problem was the ".;" symbols of comment (as datahell says) in two lines inside php.ini file!
first line <<upload_tmp_dir = .;c\apachefriends\xampp\tmp>>
the above line should be <<upload_tmp_dir = c\apachefriends\xampp\tmp>>
second line <<session.save_path = .;c\apachefriends\xampp\tmp>>
this should be <<session.save_path = c\apachefriends\xampp\tmp>>
