3 computers on our network keep coming up with a blue screen of death of the following error: Fatal Exception OE has occurred at 0028:C0082658 in VXD VREDIR 01)+ 00006A57. This was called rom 0028:C14B130A in VXD VSERVER(01)+ 000E7BA.

The VSERVER part sometimes is replaced by IFSMGR or NDIS. The numbers also change according to the VXD its called from.

I have tried to update the Drivers of the NIC, i have replaced the whole NIC with a new one without success. I even went as far as formatting the whole computer and re-installing W98 from scratch.

The operator of the computers are not doing anything in particular, sometimes the machine can no be in use and the error will occur.

The Blue Screen happen quite regularly throughoutthe day.

All machines are W98 second edition and are on a Windows 2000 server.

We do not use any kind of remote dialling, this function is not available or installed on any of the client machines.

Please help this has been an ongoing problem over the past few months!

this could be caused by several problems. Get your anti-virus updated, and scan for viruses on all PCs in the network.

Run sfc to check for corrupted files. Click Start, Run, type 'sfc'. Have the Windows CD ready to replace corrupted files.

Run scanregw.exe

This behavior can occur if either of the following conditions exists:

The Vserver.vxd file is missing or damaged in the Windows\System folder.

The DeviceVxds value with a value data of Vserver.vxd is missing or damaged in the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Class\ NetService\0000

To resolve this problem, use the appropriate method.

NOTE: If the Sharing command is missing from the context menu when you right-click a file, folder, or drive, use method 1.

Method 1
Extract a new copy of the Vserver.vxd file from your original Windows 95/98 disks or CD-ROM to the :\\system folder, where is the drive on which Windows 95/98 is installed, and is the folder in which Windows 95/98 is installed.

If you are using Windows 98, you can extract the Vserver.vxd file using the System File Checker tool.

For more information about using the System File Checker tool, please see "System File Checker Tool" section of the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

Method 2
Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.

Double-click Network.

On the Configuration tab, click File And Print Sharing, and then click the "I want to be able to give others access to my files" and "I want to be able to give other access to my printer(s)" check boxes to clear them.
Click OK, click OK again, and then restart your computer when you are prompted to do so.

Repeat steps 1-4, clicking the "I want to be able to give others access to my files" and "I want to be able to give other access to my printer(s)" check boxes to select them in step 3.
