How do I troubleshoot the following XP Schedule Task error?

Hi Experts,

I am just testing wether or not Scheduled Tasks will run for me at work.
Every time I try to create a scheduled task I get the following error, regardless of Application.

Assistance would be appreciated. Thanks.

What exactly are you trying to schedule? I mean wha will this Task be.

You either do not have permission to run the task (Administrative Permissions)
(or) You are typing your Password incorrectly when asked for it.

So.
Either -- Retype Password slower.
(or) Ask the boss to give you admin privileges.

(I ran into the same issue on my son's User (Regular User))
And on my system, when I typed out my password incorrectly.
