Network Folders freezing problem

Ok, so on my desktop with vista ultimate 64, i can not write files to network folders. I can copy from and read files from network folders just fine, but as soon as i try to copy to or write to a network folder, whether on another computer or on my NAS, my computer instantly freezes. I don't mean that explorer.exe stops responding, i mean FREEZES. I can't move the mouse, hit control+alt+delete, or anything. What else is strange is that this desktop has VMware running a virtual XP machine on it, and the virtual machine, which is sharing my wireless adapter, can copy files to network folders just fine. So its not a problem with my network in anyway, or my adapter, or my hard drive. Does anyone have any clue at all as to why i can't write files to ANY network folders while on vista 64?

Hi, SilentScream0320, and welcome to the forums.

Perhaps your anti virus is causing the computer to freeze as as soon as you try to write to the network share it starts trying to scan the entire network share....

Well, i set my network folder as an exception, and i also disabled my antivirus, but i still had this same problem. i guess i will try uninstalling it to see if i still have this problem, but i have avast installed on all my computers, and none of the other computers have problems with accessing network folders.

Nevermind, it was an issue with my TRENDnet 623pi wireless N adapter drivers. The cd that it came with didnt' have 64 bit drivers so i download the drivers for the rt2860 chipset from Ralink, and they apparently suck. I downloaded the drivers off of TRENDnet's site and they at least claim to have vista 64 drivers in there, so i'll give it a shot. If they don't work, my mobo (Asus p5k deluxe) has onboard wireless G, and I enable that, i dont' have the freezing problem
