Scheduled Tasks won't run when logged off

[Frank]

Hello

Is this problem unique to XP. I've scheduled automatic
backups to run at night when I am sleeping. With 98,
they run smoothly. With XP, I automatically log off when
I am leave the computer for 10mins. My scheduled tasks
will not run. Is there a way around this?

Thank you

Hi Frank,
Open up the Display properties page and flip to the screensaver tab. Uncheck
"On resume password protect". This might help you.
