Thanks for the replies.
I tried mapping the network drive as https://ipaddress I get prompted for a username/password and after entering them i get an error "a device attached to the system is not functioning"
So I tried mapping https://ipaddress/Share (Share is the actual name of my share) and i get the error 'unexpected network error occured'
I also installed the patch for WebDav that was suggested and this also didn't help.

Thanks

How about changing the share name to a unique one?
