    Okay having an annoying issue when accessing my folders on my network. When I try to access the folders on my desktop (XP) from my notebook (windows 7 pro) it takes about 10-15 seconds for my notebook to be able to access the folders. Once the "connection" is make everything is fine. Five minutes later, when i try to access it again it takes another 10-15 seconds to access again.

    I have disable power management on both my notebook card (intel 5300) and also on my desktop (intel Pro 1000) network card. I am in a workgroup. This happen when I have mapped the share drives and also shortcut on network place. Wireless router is Dlink 655. Any suggestions? Thanks
