I've got a scheduled task set up in my Windows 7 machine which is meant to run a BAT file when I'm not around, i.e. the machine has been idle for 15 minutes.

Does anyone know how to track down the cause of the error code ?

Checked on MSDN and it says ...

SCHED_E_TASK_ATTEMPTED
0x80041324
The Task Scheduler service attempted to run the task, but the task did not run due to one of the constraints in the task definition.

And to confuse me even further, I've just noticed it has run while I'm at the machine with last result (0x0)
