Task Scheduler Issues

[Mighty]

I have set up a number of tasks on my new Windows Server 2008 server using the task scheduler. These tasks basically run batch files on a schedule. These batch files in turn call wscript to run VBScript programs.

I can run the VBScript files manually by double clicking on them. I can also run the batch files manually by double clicking on them.

However, the the scheduled tasks kick off I can see in Task Manager that wscript has been started but it just hangs and never completes. All tasks have been set up to run using the domain administrator account and are set to run even when the user is not logged on and also set to run with the highest privileges. Can anyone shed any light on this problem?

I was going to try and set the actual Task Scheduler service to run using the domain administrator account but all options to stop the service are greyed out and I don't have permission to change the properties of the service - even though I am logged in as a domain admin.

Can anyone help?
