using scheduled tasks in WinXP.
Trying to use "Scheduled tasks in Win XP. Get error message "could not start" from all tasks.No pass word used and all schedules are filled out properly with descending times to be performed overnight. Would appreciate any thoughts anyone had on this problem. Thank you.

There is a known bug with the Task Scheduler in Windows XP. Your account needs to have a password in order for the Task Scheduler to work. If the account doesn't have a password, it won't run. To fix it, add a password.
