I have a desktop PC running Windows XP Professional directly connected to a
netgear wireless super g router. It accesses the Internet without a problem.
I have a laptop running XP Media Center V 2000 connecting to that router
wirelessly that access the Internet without a problem. This setup worked
perfectly two years ago before we moved temporarily and used the laptop in
our new location and the desktop in our old location and did not have a
network connection between the two. We have updated both computers with the
various windows updates. I am running Norton Antivirus 2007 on both machines
with the firewall on and Microsoft firewall off. Both machines have the
IRPStackSize set to 25 decimal
I can see in explorer and access the laptop’s C drive on the desktop but
cannot see in explorer any drives on the desktop from the laptop. All
desktop drives do appear in My Network Places but when I attempt to access
them I get the message that:
drive is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network
resource. Contact the administrator of the server to find out if you have
access permission.
Not enough server storage is available to process the command.
I have a 320GB drive connected to the laptop via a USB2 connection to the
drive enclosure. I can access all files on the drive from the laptop but get
the same message about not enough server storage space when I attempt to
access the USB drive from the desktop.

I have had the problem for 2 days now and resolved it by using the decimal
value of 30 in the IRPStackSize DWord. Rebooted the computer and those on
the network and all can be seen and share all folders. Hope this helps.
I am using XPPro which the changes had to be made on.
