Network Connection   

I am running XP SP 3 and accessing a Workgroup over wired network. Whenever i 
restart the machine, or it comes out of sleep state, the network is nolonger 
available. Disabling and Re Enabling the network connection restores access 
to the workgroup. Any solution i can implement so as not to have to do this 
each time?

As we have seen some issues like this one. It could be 3rd party software 
doesn't compatible with SP3. Try to start the XP with clean boot. Or this 
troubleshooting may help.
