WebApp won't run on WinXP...

AC
I created a web app on my laptop and everything runs just fine. I then copied all the files (and complete directory path) to another WinXP machine, manually setup the virtual directory (same name) and set it as an application. However, when I try to run the app on the 2nd machine (just by accessing the URL... I get different errors from VS.NET), I get the error:

"Server cannot access application directory '[path to the app]'. The directory does not exist or is not accessible because of security settings. "

I've ensured the ASPNET account has rights to that directory... also added it to the local admin group just to nix security issues. Any idea? I'm pulling my hair out on this one.
