Obstructed update; object of the same name already exists

hi

I've a problem updating a repository....

First of all, I checked out the whole rep.,
then some changed were made in the rep. on the server, so I wanted to update my local HD.

When I try "svn update", I get the following error:

F:\CG23\FakedReality>svn up
svn: Obstructed update
svn: failed to add directory 'External': object of the same name already exists

where "External" is a subdir of "F:\CG23\FakedReality"...
when I delete "External" and then do an update, everything works fine.....
but thats no alternativ, because "External" is about 30 MB and I don't want to download it every day...

Do you have any ideas, what my problem might be?

Thanks.

-Regards
Matthias
