I have a "home network" that includes two machines using
a wired netgear router. Both machines us XP Pro, one is
a lap top the other is a desk top. Attached to the desk
top as drive G: is an 80gb USB hard drive. This drive
works fine on both machines (I attached it to the laptop
to ensure it was not a hardware conflict.). Now here is
the problem. I map a network drive from the laptop to
the desk top, no problem, I can locate and map the USB
drive. (I have checked and the drive is shared with full
access). When I attempt to "open" the USB drive from the
lap top I receive the following message, not accessible
you may not have permissions (etc. I have double checked
I have the permissions) the next line states, not enough
server storage is available to process command. I am
using the home net work option, so I am unaware of
a "server" in use. Do I need to up the RAM on the Desk
top (640) or the lap top (512), or what? FYI everything
else works, I can access C:, D: E: F: drives (3 internal
HDD, and a dvd and cd drives). So any suggestions or
comments on how to get to the USB drive?
