Thanks for the info. I already talked to Microsoft and they had me do just what the link said to do. However it didn't work. Thanks for your help.
I think it's great that so many people try to help each other out in these forums.

I have ordered a new version of Windows Vista, that should demonstrate this problem, it will be here in the morning and then I will load it on a system to test with.

Did you ever get this to work. I have done this with the .kma files on an external hard drive under Vista Basic, and Vista ultimate. I had no problems at all.

Make sure your Database is still located on the C:\ drive and not the external drive.
