I haven't used windows 8 but I think it makes it hard to do things with administrator rights. According to this: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc755249.aspx you should still be able to configure the service to log on as a user with access to the files.
-- Les Mikesell lesmikesell < at > gmail.com YES!!! You're a genius! :) I followed the link you gave, went through the instructions went to Manager and opened the services list, right clicked on Rsync, went to properties, went to the "log on" tab, typed in the Administrator password and BINGO, I was able to start it!
