Stop error on W2K Server

[Tom Burbury]

I have recently setup up a small network for a school
consisting of one W2K Server (sp4), 2 XP Professional
clients and 5 Windows 98 clients. There seems to be a
problem when starting clients on this network if the
Windows 98 clients are not started first. Basically I keep
getting a stop error as follows:

STOP: 0x000000D1 etc.,
DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

Which refers to the tcpip.sys file. I get this happen
intermittently whilst the system is running but it seems
to happen all the time whenever I start up a Windows 98
client if the XP clients are already running. Any ideas?

Regards.
Tom Burbury.

Thanks, I have done this and the system seems more stable

at present so hopefully that has sorted it.
