1. make user afsdcell.ini looks correct (your's does)

2. ping to server
     ping asu.edu

3. Check contents of Cell in the system registry
     HKEY\CurrentControlSet\Services\TransarcAFSDaemon\Parameters\Cell
This value should be a valid AFS cell supported by your server (asu.edu).

4.  Check the "Event Monitor - Applications" for AFS error messages.
