What a pile

XP Pro sees two folders on my other PC (Win 7).

On home LAN via Cat5 no WiFi involved.

I copied a bunch of files over and checked free disk giving me over 1TByte.

I tried to copy more files and XP says:

---------------------------
My Documents
---------------------------
W:\ is not accessible.

Not enough server storage is available to process this command.

and

---------------------------
My Documents
---------------------------
Z:\ is not accessible.

Not enough server storage is available to process this command.

You can pop the entire error message into Google.
What that tells me, is there is more than one root
cause possible. The error message may not be precise
enough for the job (it could have used better wording,
or identified an actual resource).

For sure, it does *not* mean you're out of disk. That
hasn't appear in anything I've looked at so far. But
there are other resources you could run out of.
IRPStack space, Paged Pool (memory), Non-Paged Pool (memory).

********

IRPStackSize. Not likely to be applicable, except
if maybe you set this in Regedit manually to a small
number. This is an ancient KB. My registry doesn't
have this entry. The next article gives the WinXP default.

They give a range of values here. Default 15 for WinXP, Range 11 to 50

There could be more than one root cause.

And seems far removed from the mechanism described here.

I can also find references to running out of Paged Pool
or Unpaged Pool (part of system memory). The expected error message
should be different though, so it's not clear why your exact error
message pops up because of that. Maybe the IRPStack uses one of the
Pools for memory ? Perhaps that's how it works. I've had that problem
(Pool exhaustion) on this system, and tend to blame it on VPC2007.
Mainly because I can't figure out what else it might be :-)
The "drivers" that VPC2007 installs, run all the time, even if the
software is not running. I've had one case, where the floppy interleave
factor was being blown - and simply by starting VPC2007, the
problem corrected itself instantly.

It might be quite difficult to identify what piece of
software is actually doing this. Is it an AV product ?
Somehow you need the affected subsystem to "confess" :-)

In my experience, that error message is misleading. It usually there's
a problem with the server service on the server machine. First easiest
thing to do is reboot the server (Win7 machine). Wouldn't hurt to
reboot the XP machine, either.
