Default New Normal.dot not loading on startup

Hello:

I just got a new computer and we are now required to keep all documents on a
network server. I have changed all my file locations to a "My Documents"
folder I've created on the network. Included in this folder is a sub-folder
called "Templates" in which I have stored my customized Normal.dot. On my
old computer I selected this "Template" folder to load MY Normal.dot upon
start up, but it won't work this time. What am I doing wrong?

Specifics: Word 2003
Startup File Location: F:\My Documents\Templates
Documents: F:\My Documents\Word
User Templates: F:\My Documents\Templates
Workgroup Templates: F:\My Documents\Templates
Auto Recover Files: C:\Documents and Settings\vcervan\Application
Data\Microsoft\Word
Tools: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11

Thanks.
