Vista - "My Documents" redirection dropping periodically

Hi,

I have Vista Business on my desktop. Our "My Documents" folder is
redirected to a network share for backup purposes. Users running XP have no
problems, but on my Vista desktop, a couple of times a week my PC loses that
connection (the icon changes to a blank page looking icon), and I have to
reboot to restore the connection, and it will be fine for a day or two, and
then do it again. It's more inconvenient than annoying, but I wondered if
anyone else has seen this, and if there is a way to fix it. I binged, but
didn't find any help.

Mike

Re: Vista - "My Documents" redirection dropping periodically

When it "drops the connection", can you still access other computers through
the network?
