Use your favorite text editor to create a .BAT file, with command lines like "net use x: \\PCname\share /persistent:yes <password>" Then create a link in your Startup folder to that .BAT. When you boot, XP will invoke the .BAT file to recreate the mapping. You may need to tailor the net use commands for your environment; see XP's Help facility for clues if your first guess doesn't make it.
