OK, I did a search on the boards and found several people listing the same problem, but usually because they hadn't taken comment lines out properly, etc. Here is my config.asp (pertinent portion anyway). Please point me in the right direction. Thank you.

I have been careful to make sure there are no spaces in the paths. Where I have highlighted yellow, I have tried a leading quotation mark and without. Also, this is just a test install, so paths will be changed at a later date. Thanks in advance!
