  80004005 Reply Contact Hi there, I have recently installed windows 7 pro 64. I have a classic asp app using msaccess which ran perfectly on my vista install. I keep getting " error '80004005' " on my connectionstring line in asp . No additional info.  I have done the following :  icacls command for users and creator owner. disabled uac. set permissions for iis guest account to full control on site directory. set loaduserprofiles to false. enabled parent paths. set show error messages to true. changed from dsn to connectionless and back. I'm now stuck at what to do next. Please help Thanking you in advance.

  Re: 80004005 Reply Contact Hi I had the same problem on a W7 32 bit install. The three steps I took were 1. The two icacls command line changes 2. Giving the IIS account full control over the web site root 3. The same for the Temp directory in the user's AppData/Local folder.  Initially that didn't change anything, reboot required and then it all worked. Can't see any reason why 64 bit would be different, but I'll find out in the next few days when I do the same thing for another machine with 64 bit installed! Good Luck Tim
