OFFLINE FILES problem

I have a Dell laptop running Windows XP Professional SP-1. It is connected to a Windows 2000 server. I store my data files on the server and backup to the laptop with offline files. The problem I have is my laptop frequently shows a warning “OFFLINE FILES – Working Offline. You are no longer connected to the server”, and it goes offline. The network connection is still enabled and working. It occurs more often when there is a data transfer to or from the server but also sometimes occurs when the laptop is idle. Any ideas?
