    could not reconnect all network drives

    Please help I have been at this all day!

    I set up my new Patriot Corza NAS and got it running despite some ambiguous instructions on my Win Vista Home Premium 64 computer. I kept the standard defaults ie name: corza-nas, login: admin, password: admin etc. The 2 808GB HDD's are set up in ext3 as raid1.

    Following comments by another user I typed \\corza-nas in the address bar of explorer, right clicked the public folder and mapped this to G: drive.



    Everthing worked fine, I was able to copy, open files etc but every time boot up from windows I get the mesage "could not reconnect all network drives".

    The corza icon has a red cross through it and clicking it requires me to log on again. When i do this the username comes up as "k1200\\admin" (the computer name is k1200) which I have to change to "admin" and then enter "admin" as the password, everything works fine again.

    I have read through this and various other forums but am unsure of this question. Do I need Vista Professional to stop this from happening? Keeping in mind that I dont have (or want) any users on my computer, it just boots up as administrator straight to the desktop.

    Thanks

    if you are asking if you have to enter the login details every time, i would assume yes. to me, it seems that vista has something against saving information on networks that are 'unidentified'.
