When you access shares on a computer running Windows NT Server from a Windows NT client and the IRPstackSize parameter is set too low on the server, you may receive the following error message: "Not enough server storage is available to process this command." This tweak should resolve the problem.

Open your registry and find the key below.

Create a new DWORD value, or modify the existing value, named "IRPstackSize" and set it to equal the required stack size between 1 and 12, the default is 4.

Restart Windows for the change to take effect.

Settings:
System Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\
Parameters]

Name: IRPstackSize
Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value)
Value: 1 - 12 (default = 4)
