I'm working on a client's computer which is a Windows XP machine. The
PC is on a domain with a Windows 2003 Server, which hosts several
folders for this user to access. On the windows xp machine, however,
the two mapped folders are not showing the entire contents of those
folders when you browse to it through My Computer, etc. When you look
at the shared folder on the server, all of the files are showing up.

I tried to disconnect and re-map the drives, but I was given a login/
password prompt. I cant get this prompt to accept my login/password,
or even the admin password on the server.

Please help. Anyone have any suggestions?

It sounds like your cached credintials on the local PC are bad for a
particular server. Go to control panel > user accounts > advanced > manage
passwords. Choose the server that has the mapped drive is on and enter the
correct password there. Your mapped drives should work now.
