Mapped network drives

I am unable to map more than one network drive. Is there something in the
registry keeping me from doing this?

I see alot of networking issues in the forum, and i too, have network
problems. Each time i boot up, i have to go to the network adapter and
disable, then reenable it -- then it works. Any help on that would be
great...

Thanks!
Susan

Susan,

There's no generally known registry setting that would keep you from mapping
multiple drives. There are a lot of networking issues here, this is a forum for
networking issues. That doesn't mean that networking issues, worldwide, are at
an epidemic level.

How about some history and description of your network, and this computer? Have
you always had this problem? If not, when did it start? Are there other
computers on the network? With or without the problem?

Do you have the most current drivers for the network adapter?

What is this one mapping that you can make? Have you tried having other
mappings active, and if so, are you still limited to just any one mapping? How
many different servers (computers that you map to) do you have on your network?
How many have you tried mapping?
