Not enough server storage is available to process this command."
indicates that you are falling foul of the IRPStackSize bug.

The problem is on the machine you are attempting to connect to,
not the machine where you see the error message.


On the computer you are attempting to connect to,
Check the event viewer for an event ID 2011.


Usual fix :
You need to fix a parameter called IRPStackSize


On the machine you are attempting to connect to,
Set the IRPStackSize back to the default (15 ).
Perform the following steps:


1. Start the registry editor (e.g., regedit.exe).
2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\
Services\lanmanserver\parameters.
3. Double-click IRPStackSize
(or if this registry setting doesn't exist,create it of
type DWORD and ensure the case is correct).
4. Change the base to decimal, set the value to 15, and click OK.
5. Reboot the computer.


Norton AV is usual suspect for breaking it.


There's a KB article about this, too.
You may have missed it, because it's applicability has not been updated to
