This problem occurs if both of the following conditions are true:

• You are using the Hungarian language as the default input language or you are using a Hungarian-language edition of Windows Server 2003.
  
  -and-
• Windows tries to create the Microsoft UAM Volume folder on an NTFS file system formatted partition.
