scheduled tasks

[winta]

BlankI am trying to set up scheduled tasks for windows XP home edition. I don't have passwords, but it is my computer, therefore I must have the authorization. However whenever I add passwords and click, I get the following message: error occurred while attempting to set task account info. specific error is: 0x80070005 access is denied. You do not have permission to perform the requested operation. What do I do?

Thanks for your help.
