I have a wired network at home with work fine with one exception, I have just
added to one of the PC`s a USB hard drive for the storage of photos.
I have set it as a shared drive, it shows in the list of drives on the
network, but when I try to set it as a networrk drive I get the above
message, we have many more USB hard drives on the network with can be
accessed without problem, the drive is new and has been formatted as "NFTS"
I have checked the settings of this drive against the others and they seem
to match unless I have missed something.

0x80070005 is permission issue. These post may help.
