I have PIII 550 with 1.5g HD (removable).
I get services (server, computer browser) failed to start because of not enough storage space. I get this message whenever I load nic (3com 10/100, 3c905) driver eventhough I have the latest driver. Also,I don't have any software loaded on this machine except NT. I have sp 6 loaded on here and over 900mb of free space.

what can I do to fix this problem..
Thanks in advance..

You say you have SP6 loaded but do you reload it after making changes to your networking? You will need to reload the SP after adding/changing and network services

i.e. NIC, Protocols or services

This is a known issue with NT 4 and can be viewed at the Microsoft support page.

Thanks

Reinstall you nic driver then reinstall your service packn this will fix your problem

hope this helps good luck

This happens when you install some NICs after the service pack. I agree with the above...and always remember that when you make ANY changes to your system setup you should reapply your service pack.

Happy networking!

This can also be caused by the irpstacksize setting being to low. Ceck the hklm\system\currentcontrolset\services\lanmanserver\parameters\irpstacksize. Default is 6 but you can safely increase it, though if it is set to high you can get the same problems.
