Access Denied In Scheduling Tasks

I'm trying to set up a daily scheduled task to run a Winamp playlist. But every time I end the wizard, I get a "Access Is Denied" message. This is weird because I'm the administrator of my system, shouldn't all control be available to me?

Anyway, I've noticed that tasks created by "system" are able to run just fine. Is there any way I can have the system schedule the task for me? Or even better, fix the access denied problem?

If you have no password configured for the account you can't schedule tasks for that user. Hopefully that's it becuase I'm not sure what else would cause that problem.

Post this in Operating Systems and tell them what version of XP you are using.

I've tried to do something similar in the past with no positive results, but this was getting into a gray area for me. Someone may know how over there.
