I have had this problem for some time now and the problem seems to exist in
both SP2 and SP1. It seems to occur with USB drives, Network drives and the
root C:\ alike. Trying everything suggested with no results. Hopefully
someone digs a little deeper to identify this issue. Thanks for all your
comments and suggestions.
