Winan,

Open up the IIS management applet, go to the properties of the Default Web and check the Local Path under the Home Directory tab. It should contain G:\Inetpub\wwwroot. If it does, then you have a drive mapping, sharing or permission problem. Check the Network Places of the server that runs IIS and make sure that you see a G: drive. Make sure that the account that IIS runs under has full permissions to G:\Inetpub\wwwroot.

If it does not contain that path, then something happened to reset that path. Perhaps IIS was re-installed? At this point you can either change the Local Path setting back to G:\Inetpub\wwwroot, or create new Web Applications matching the names of all of the subwebs that currently exist in G:\Inetpub\wwwroot and then copy the contents of each folder from G:\Inetpub\wwwroot into the matching folders of C:\Inetpub\wwwroot (the default location for your Default Web Site). I haven't done either of these things personally, so I would back up everything before trying either method.

If all that fails, you can create a new project in the same directory (G:\Inetpub\wwwroot\MyWeb1) and manually include the existing files in the project, or you can change to using FrontPage extensions when opening the project (in the Open Project dialog).

If you have FrontPage extensions (any version) installed onto your IIS, I would use that method exclusively.
