Problem changing from Mixed to Native Mode

Hi,

I am new to the group so apologies if I do not follow all the rules!

We have an Windows 2000 Active Directory, spanning several sites, which has
been running in Mixed Mode.

We now have no NT4 servers at all on the system so want to change to Native
Mode.

When I try to change the mode, I am told it has worked and that it will take
15 minutes to complete. We then get the following message.
"The following Active Directory erro occured: A device attached to the
system is not functioning"

I can find no references to this on the web or Microsoft, any suggestions
anyone?

Thanks

<DC 6> is NOT a DOMAIN controller (it was, but was demoted a couple of years
ago, is it's appearance here something we should be concerned about?

I have been playing with this and the first time I am trying to change to
Native Mode I am getting "A universal group cannot have a local group as a
member"

We do have a trust to a second domain but do not have any universal groups....

Can anyone help?
 
Sorry wrong error code posted, correct one is
" A global group cannot have a universal group as a member"
