I uninstalled tortoise on my laptop and then I deleted my working copy
of the repository and reinstalled tortoise on my laptop in an attempt
to remove any errors on my computer.

Yes I deleted my auth data and have re-entered it when prompted.

I have also excluded the repository from indexing as well. I
understand that Visual svn server should handle the permissions but in
another blog someone suggested making sure that read/write permissions
were enabled on the root of the repository.

We have had three out of five laptops working perfectly with tortoise
and Visual svn... now we only have one. We really feel that this
system can work for us if we can get past the possible "user" errors.
That is the problem, I cannot pinpoint where the problem is and feel
like I may have to totally rebuild our version control system. We do
not have all of our data up yet and what we do have under version
control is secure and intact.
