A drive letter assigned using the subst command works fine as a local
drive on my XP computers, Bill.
What software are you running, and what exactly happens when you run
it?
Perhaps the problem is with the software, not with XP. Try
un-installing it and re-installing it. If you can't do that, try
running it in compatibility mode for your previous version of Windows.
