VMWARE Problem with Folders/hdd sharing

Hi,

i have a problem sharing folders or whole hdd. I try to explain my configuration:

Computer A:

Host OS: winxp64 pro with VmWare Workstation 6.5

Client OS: winxp32

In the Host OS i have 1tb drive, spared in 3 partitions: 1 for the winxp64 (main os), 1 for the winxp32( image), and 1 with data storage,

i have tryed to share and give all permission the the partition with datastorage, but when i try, from the winxp32 os to access the data storage disk,

i can see all the datas, but if i try to copy a file on desktop, seem explorer get freezed, and after some minute, i get error like:' network resource is no more accessible'.

Main OS ip: 192.168.200.2

Xp32 (image) ip: 192.168.200.3 (bridged)

router: 192.168.200.1

I made another test: if i try to copy files from another phisical pc in my network, i have no problems, problem is just when i try to copy files from computer A from guest to host OS.

Please help me
