Byte, Thanks but no luck with that.
Here is the error message:
"windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have
appropriate permissions to access the item"
It is as almost it does not recognize any account with admin privileges to
do this. I have typed in bogus user names and get the same error message.
I have three other XP boxes and this does not happen, granted this is the
PC everyone generally uses.
