Retaining password on network connection

[KenKasmar]

I have a machine running XP on a network (workgroup) with serveral machines running ME. When I set up a mapped drive to on the XP machine to a shared folder on one of the ME machines, mark it as 'reconnect at logon', enter the password (which then opens the connection), then reboot the XP machine I get a message saying that the network folder connections could not be established. If I try and open the mapped drive it prompts me for the password. Is there any way to make the mapping persistant as I have several applications that will crap out if tries to go to the mapped share when it wants a password?

Thanks
