Error with xp and roaming profile

[James Boden]

Getting the following error message about cannot copy
files. Checked all security settings and all is ok.
Have yet to find the answer.
"Windows cannot copy file Cocuments and
Settings\username\local settings\Application
data\Microsoft\windows\usrclass.dat to location
\\Servername\users\username\local settings\application
data\Microsoft\windows\usrclass.dat possible causes
include network problems or insufficient security
rights" click OK, then error message reads "Windows
cannot update your roaming profile... Details: this
process cannot access the file because it is being used
by another process"

Thanks Jim
