SASM unable to create the .LST file; .MAP file not found on disk

I have recently installed SX-Key v3.2.3 and am trying to use the Assembler.
The software is installed on three separate computers in our lab, and we get different results on each install!
Scenario:
start SX-key 3.2.3
File>open> select myProgram.src [noparse][[/noparse]each computer has it's own copy of the .scr file]
Run>Assemble
Computer A results:
a popup window with message:
SASM unable to create the .LST file.· File may be open in another application.
Computer C results:
popup window message:
.MAP fle not found on disk·
Computer B results:
Assembly successful.
On Computer B, I can then do:·
Run>Launch SXSim·
and the simulator starts, which is what I'm trying to do.
But it doesn't work on the other machines, which as far as I know were installed the same way.
When I do Run>Configure on the three machines, the four configuration screens appear identical.
BTW, we do not have a physical SX-Key connected to any of the machines,
probably due to USB driver installation problems, but that's another issue.
Any ideas what I need to do to fix this?· BTW, I need to work through our·IT dept to get software installed in the Lab, so may access is somewhat inflexible.

I know what I know, don't confuse me with the facts...

Are you running with Admin rights? Is the IDE configured to output to the "Output" directory, or the source file directory?
Thanks,

SASM files to "SASM Output" dir. is checked.
The problem appears to be user-specific.
I can assemble OK on any of the computers, but when a student logs on, the problem appears:
"SASM was unable to create the .LST file. The file may be opened in another application."
Now both students are getting the same message.
Perhaps the user has some files left from a previous assembly?
Or perhaps there is some kind of sharing violation in· the software itself,
but that doesn't make sense unless it's locking out at the disk drive level.
Student files are on a network drive.

Try un-checking the "SASM file to SASM output dir." option and see if the problem still occurs. I have a feeling the problem is related to lack of admin privleges since the SASM output directory is located under the directory that SASM is installed into.
Let me know if this fixes the problem.
Thanks,
PeterM
the files are now saved on the source drive.
Thanks.
