Default Shared folder not working

Hi,
Sharing folder works fine only when I am logged.
When I disconnect from my computer or when the sceensaver is activated, the
other users cannot access my shared drives.
Windows Vista Home Prenium doc says it is a normal behaviour but I cannot
find how to always enable by network share.
Regards
zolof

I saw a post before but don't remember the solution. Do you use blank
password?

Check your power setting for the network adapter.
