Task Scheduler stopped working altogether?

I've been using task scheduler ever since i had Vista - apart from some
peculiarities (have to reset the task if i reset the PC) it always worked

Last couple weeks it stopped working altogether - I've set up some dummy
tasks to check (open word doc @ 5:13) - the task shows "running", but it
isn't?

Anyone know anything about task scheduler?

Check in Task Manager (ctrl-shift-escape > Show processes from all users) to
see if the process is listed; the tasks could be running in a different
session and / or as another user.

Also check the history tab of the task in task manager to see if any errors
are listed.
