Hi everyone I just installed an external 160GB USB2.0
hard drive on my main machine, and it works great on that
machine...the problem is none of my other machines can
access it, I have it shared and they can see it but I get
an error that says the server does not have enough
resources? all my other shared drives are shared the same
way and I just can not figure this out...Is it due to
USB ? or just some little something I am missing

The problem is probably that an antivirus program has changed an
obscure TCP/IP setting. Please see this Microsoft Knowledge Base
article for a likely solution, specifying a value of 15 for
IRPStackSize on the "server" computer:
