Joe's suggestion worked for me. (Great guess Joe!!!!) When I clicked on "Manage my network passowrds" there were already two entries there from two other users that had used this workstation. I first 'disconnected' the mapped drives through 'My Computer'. Then came back to the 'user account' settings and deleted both entries LEAVING this blank. Re-booted, then re-mapped drives through 'My Computer' checking 'reconnect at logon' and everything has been fine since!!

This is just a guess... Try going to user accounts on the control panel.
Select your account. When the " What do you want to change about your
account?" window opens, select "manage my network passwords" under Related
Tasks. in the blue pane to the left. Enter your user name and password for
the computer with the drive you are connecting to.
I am having the same problem. Unfortunately Joe's suggestion did not work for me.
-XP Pro workstations in a Windows 2k domain with active directory
-User's home directories are mapped to F drive
-When logging on the "Can not reconnect all network drives" bubble pops up and the F drive has a red X through it. When you click on the drive it opens and the red X dissapears but this is a nuisance because the user's Outlook Archive file is stored on the F drive and Outlook screams if you try to open your Archive without first opeing My Computer and clicking on the drive to remove the X.
