When you have a problem like this the best first approach  (when
running Windows) is to look  here:

http://www.virtualacorn.co.uk/support/articles/indexpc.htm

There  is a lot of stuff in these articles and I'm adding to them
over time as new  versions of Windows appear.

I suspect that this particular  article:

is  likely to hold the solution.
