Multiple intermittent connection errors in Outlook 2007 after upgr

P

* Things to keep in mind of first. We are using Exchange 2003 and the
computers are running Office XP SP2.

I have upgraded a couple of computers from Outlook 2003 to Outlook 2007. One
these computers intermittently around every two hours will disconnect from
Exchange. When this happens an error box stating: Pops up.

Microsoft Office Outlook: Outlook is trying to retrieve data from the
Microsoft exchange server SERVER.NAME.HERE.

When that error goes away, another error box pops up stating:

Windows - Delayed Write Failed: Windows was unable to save all the data for
the file \Device\WinCfs\NETOWRK DRIVE PATH HERE\Personal Folders.pst. The
data has been lost. This error may be caused by a failure of your computer
hardware or network.

When those error messages go away, you can resume working normally, except
that some (and not always the same one everytime) shared calendar from other
users items (such as meetings, etc,) if opened give the error message:

Microsoft OfficeOutlook: The messaging interface has returned an unknown
error. If the problem persists, restart Outlook.

At this point you can close Outlook and reopen it and you no longer get this
message from the same Outlook items...for about 2 more hours.

Now, I have pinged the machine while the succession of errors occured and
the computer never dropped from the networrk or timed-out. Also, I can still
surf the web while these "connection problems are occurring. So I am doubtful
that this is a network problem on my end.

Also, I have configured it identical to all the other computers running MSO
07 who do not have this problem... I went over ALL the settings twice.

I have made sure all the MS KB updates are the same on the computers that
are working and the having the problem. They are identical.

The only KB Article I found that come close is:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/936864/en-us

Only because of this statement:
You do not have to start Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 to discover a server
that is running Microsoft Exchange Server. Outlook 2007 now provides an API
to discover Exchange Server servers.

I am currently wainting on Microsoft to send me that file and I have opened
a Support Call with them but, I wanted to see if anyone in here has any
suggestions...
