The problem was what i guessed at first. Heat! I took the comp back to his house along with a thermoeter and a multimeter. Checked the room temp while i checked the power outlet for unsual signs.

Is NetBUEI still installed in both computers and are the drives shared properly? If you're having this problem after the installation of ZA, remove it and see if it works. If it does then reinstall ZA and reconfigure it.
