Online chat w/ XP support last night proved useless; they wanted me to keep the user under whom I was trying to run the scheduled task permanently logged in. I know that it's just a workstation, but coming from serverworld, keeping someone logged in all time time to just run a 30-sec. process every 5 minutes is not a solution.
So, I deleted the task, reapplied SP1, rebooted, recreated the task, and voila...
it works, no problem.
I still need to get a little sticker made for my monitor... "Windows: Yeah, it does
that".
