Greetings,
I've recently came across a problem with a machine running Windows XP. The computer is part of a 2 computer workgroup and using file and print sharing. The users access documents on each others computers over the network by clicking on "my network places" and selecting the share they need access too. One of the computers locks up when trying to access a share on the other computer. Now if i delete the network place shortcut and run "add a network place" point it to the correct share it will work again. It seems like it'll work for about a month or so then it just stops responding again and then I have to run "add network place" again. The other computer does not experience this problem. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks!
