I have 2 shared folders on my server that is winxp.

I have my mac mini that I want to be able to see those 2 folders. I did as instructed, by going to the File Menu Bar. I pressed the Go Menu, connect to server, selected my server and highlighted/selected the 2 folders that I want to connect to. It will connect successfully and put the folder icons on my desktop. When I reboot my mini, I get an error message saying Folder 1 can't be connected to. I click ok, and folder 2 will get connected and the contents of the folder will be shown. How do I connect 2 folders?
 
I figured one thing out but still don't know why. I have both of these shared folders added to the automatic login items on restart. whichever volume is listed first in the list is the one that won't connect. When I look at the automatic login list, the first one in the list will show the kind of item as unknown and the other as volume.
