drive

I'm trying do get Server 2008's Task Scheduler to run a C# console app which backs up data to a mapped backup drive somewhere on FastHosts network.

I've written a test app which simply does this

Directory.CreateDirectory("Z:\" + DateTime.Now.Ticks.ToString());

i.e. just creates a directory on the root of this Z drive.

This works fine when I just run the .exe but when I schedule it in Task Scheduler it says the task has completed with return code 3762507597 - I can't find any info on what this means.

I'm running the task with the highest Admin privelages as far as I can see.
