Wireless laptop & desktop Home Networking Issue

[Guest]

I have a laptop and a desktop with XP Home that our both wireless to a belkin
wireless router. I have the windows firewall disabled on both computers. I
have the firewall on the router active as well as Kaspersky Firewall and
Antivirus on both computers. I have set up home networking on both
computers. When I go to My Network on both computer I see all the drives I
have access to. I have no problems using the desktop to access my laptop.
NONE. When I use my Laptop to access the desktop I get the error
"\\GATEWAY\ExternalHD\ is not accessible. You might not have permission to
use this network resourse. Contact the administrator of this server to find
out if you have access permissions. Not enough storage is available to
process this command" Also, one of the drives is an access to a Zip-100
drive I have hooked up through USB. I have access to it but not anything on
the desktop or the external hard drive I also have hooked up through the USB.
I have had it working before, but one day it gave this error. What do I do?

Try modifying the IRPStackSize - this error is not confined to Norton AV:

Thanks!! It worked. The only thing was I was changing the IRPStackSize on
the computer that the error was on instead of the computer that I was trying
to access. Once I changed it on the computer I was trying to access; it
worked.

I guess the article isn't too clear - but that is the correct procedure. Go
get 'em, Nathan!
