I run Windows XP. I am connected to a network. When I
open Explorer or My Computer the drives I mapped
dissappears in front of me. Then I remap them with the
reconnect at logon on and still after a few minutes it
seem to dissappear again, can you please help me?
 
If this happens immediately after your dekstop loads on bootup, check your login script to see if you're deleting the drives before you map them. Try taking all NET USE xx /DELETE statements out of your login script, and see if that helps.

If your problem occurs after you've been logged in for a while, this is probably not your issue. See other posts about the 15 minute drive disconnect isue with XP. There's a timeout that will disconnect your drives after a default of 15 minutes, but you can change it. I don't know the details, but other posts here have them. Search for "Mapped Drives" to find them.
