Access 2003: "Disk or network Error"

Several users get this message when they are idle for some time. Although
they described to get it when they were working on it, i think it is possible
they have another form open for too long that causes this "timeout".

I have found this documenatation on MS KB:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q251254/

After having changed TEMP folders to c:\temp the error remains.
This forum doesnt have a proper solution either, apart from having a form
opened for too long and being idle.
In the MS Acces options at Tools-Options-Advanced, there are several options
that can be adjusted by changing the seconds. My idea that this is the key to
solving this issue.

I am not sure what exactly these options mean and what i have to change to
solve the problem described in this post. If anyone has more information or
advice on this, please be so kind to help me out.

I suspect there is some kind of network timeout here. However where
the setting is I have no idea. Be in on the client or the server or
the user profile or the ?????

Alternatively this could be caused by some flaky hardware such as
network cards or network hubs.
