maybe this will help; this is the exact problem: sorry that its a fullscreen pic- the BAT file closes as soon as I start it up so I don't really have time to just take a window shot. I have to be really fast... U might need to zoom in a little...

I have to be really fast... U might need to zoom in a little... First obviosly the computer is denieing access to the system fool around with properties and see if that helps second I have seen something like when I tried to get my first zappy running usaly means youve screwed around a little with python or the scritp is wrong im gonna guessing you should reinstall python.Well if thats the case that is.Call when your done and see what you get.

Jason, your problem looks to be that python doesn't have permission to view or edit the file. Find your python .exes and set them to run with Administrative priveliges.
Salvage, try making another bat file with either
insert.exe -help
or
insert.exe -h
that should give you a list of the arguments needed and in what order they should go. You might be missing something.

Hey guys. The Zappy issue (although i know nothing about Vista) appears to be, as Arcaith said, an issue with permissions. So I dont think reinstalling would really change anything. As for the script, try to stick to using the one i have in my Zappy Startup Guide, because it has an extra line of script added in that seems to fix a crash that most people experience when first using Zappy.

Hey you kinda handed me insert.bat could you send it again or show its arguments the ones that were used.

^^ Salvage, open notepad and paste whats underlined below inside it:
insert.exe [ROM Location] [File Location] [Start Offset] [End Offset]
Save As--> insert.bat Fill in the stuff in the []'s with what it asks for. The start offset is the place you want it to start writing to End Offset = Start Offset + Size of File
About my ZAPPY problem:
Well i seem to have fixed it... For now anyways. That permission thing wasn't the problem- i was already the owner of everything and had all my permissions granted. I guess placing the ROM in the C:\\ directory was denying me access. Instead, I moved it to my main modding folder on the desktop and removed all my spaces in the file path and wallah!
