Default Error message when mapping drive

Hi,,

When i map a drive, i key in the right password and username and tick on
remember the password. Next time when I try to enter the drive(there is a red
cross on the drive), there is this message "Incorrect password or unknown
username for" pop out.

I am using window vista home basic. I have enable netbios over tcp/ip. I off
all firewall. I can ping both computers.

Thank you for any suggestion.

The Vista Home doesn't remember the password. You may have some options. 1.
Create the same username and password on both computer. 2. Create a logon
batch file to map the drives. Or check this post
