Task Scheduler wont run!!!

I am adding tasks to Task Scheduler. They run an exe that I have created on my machine. Im using Windows 2000. I am doing it on a networked machine. The User that I am running the task has administrator rights. I am setting a password.
I am setting the task to run daily at 10:07. When I set it on the first day, it runs fine. However, the second time it tries to run (on the next day) it says COULD NOT START. LAST RESULT 0x0
Is there something I am doing wrong? Could it be to do with any 3rd party application such as ISA server that is preventing it from running a second time?

I had a similar problem running batch files from the task scheduler on windows 2000. I had to be logged in to the computer for the tasks to run. I didn't really like leaving the computer logged in especially with administrative rights, but I figured I'd just log in, then lock the computer, and the tasks still run fine.
