Mapping network drive
I have windows 7 and was able to map my network drive originally. Now it says my password isn't correct. I checked with our tech and he said it's correct and it's my computer messing with me. What could have changed in my settings for it not to be accepted anymore?

I'll assume the network drive is on the same domain you're logging into. I'll also assume that the network drive isn't on someone else's pc. Let your tech work it out, that's what he's there for. Show them you have a problem and let them check that the share is available. Is this share on a Windows 2000 Server?MCSE, MCSA, MCDST

It sounds to me like you are trying to use a share from either a 2000/xp machine, mapped as a network drive on your windows 7 pc. Is this true? If it is make sure the date and time are set correctly on the 2000/XP machine. It sounds stupid, but the date and time being wrong will make the windows7 machine throw that error.... Ask me how i know this :)
