I'm trying to install ProE onto a network drive. The remote server is running 2003 server. I have admin rights on that machine. The server has a share that I have assigned to a drive letter on the local machine.
The local machine is Windows 7, I'm an admin here also.
When I try to install Pro/E on the mapped drive, I get an error that says: (I ran as administrator)

However I can browse to the P: drive and create a new text document, so I do have write access.
If I log into a remote machine that is running XP or Windows 2003, I can install on the mapped drive no problems.
Anyone know how I can make Windows 7 let me install on the mapped drive?
