Have to reboot to connect network drives in the morning.

I have a Windows Xp Professional PC connected to a Windows 2003 Server. The
Xp PC has 2 mapped network drives. In the morning I have to reboot my PC to
be able to access the mapped drives. If I try to open my computer before
rebooting, it stops responding. Anyone have any ideas?

Interesting... you reboot to regain access and the problem I am having is
after a reboot is when I loose access to the mapped network drive. I have my
client
click on the mapped network drive letter that displays in My Computer and that
seems to re-establish connection. They are running XP SP2 (not sure which
edition)
