I have the Problem does if I am save a ppt-file out of Powerpoint in to a
mapped network drive, I will got a lost of the communication to this mapped
drive. And the file is corrupted as well.
I have a HP nc8000 Laptop (Windows 2000 SP4) with a Portrepilcator connected
to a Windows 2000 Domain and a File Server.
We have exchanged the laptop 3 times but the error is still existing. We
have deleted the Profile of the User. If he do this at a Desktop it works but
not on a Laptop.

As a workaround while you figure out the laptop problem, try saving the
presentation to the laptop's hard drive instead of to the mapped drive. Then
use Windows Explorer or a command prompt to copy the file to the mapped drive.

There's no specific problem between any version of PPT and mapped drives, but
PPT can get fussy about saving to network drives in some cases.

The problem is that we have locked the access to the local drives because
security direktives. And ón all other 400 Computers in the network we have no
problems only with one user. But we have deleted his profile and everything
else.

I'm afraid this goes way past my ability to even guess what's going on then.
All things considered, it may be the least expensive solution to reformat the
computer and set it up again.
