I have XP Home w/SP1, I am having trouble getting the Task Scheduler to run
scheduled tasks. The service is running, I have followed
the instruction in Microsoft Knowledge Base Article -
308569 to the letter.

The tasks run one time then from then on it shows the next
logical run time but only the first time shows in the time
ran column (even if several times have passed). All
settings in the set up are set for reoccurring runs but it
runs only once.
