But this one keeps failing. :( > Are you running an elevated command shell? Even with admin privileges the normal shell runs as a plain user. An elevated command shell will have a title bar that looks like: Administrator: Command Prompt. (and opens in C:\Windows\system32) For the most part, admin privilege just means you don't have to enter a password for UAC prompts to enter elevated privilege levels. An elevated command shell triggers a UAC prompt. -- Wulfraed Dennis Lee Bieber AF6VN [email protected] http://wlfraed.microdiversity.freeddns.org/
