Cannot add pictires to gallerix caption

upon picture upload in gallerix 1.2 getting the following error messages:

Field 'caption' doesn't have a default value query: INSERT INTO gallerix_pictures (nid, pid, uid, path, name, original_name, added) VALUES (282, 5, 1, 'files/gallerix/albums/1/282/picture.jpg', 'picture.jpg', picture.jpg', 1201321686) in C:\\includes\database.mysql.inc on line 172.

Tried uninstalling and reinstalling the module.
The database has a null setting and I have tried mySQL with strict and not strick modes.
Tried upgrading to php 5.2.6 as well as to mySQL 5 from 4

Ideas?

Php 5.2.6
Drupal 5.7
IIS6
W2k3
MySQL 5.0.51a with and without strict mode
