The event viewer says:
for Service control manager:
the following boot-start or system-start driver(s) failed to load
BTKRNL
MRxSmb
Rdbss
the messenger service depends on the workstation service which failed to
start because of the following error
The service has returned a service-specific error
The workstation service terminated with service specific error 2250
Could not load RDR device driver
Could not load Rdbss device driver
I ran NBTSTAT -n and got the following:
Patsy-2 <20> UNIQUE Registered
MAC Address = 005080f39430
I do not think it is a bad card 'cuz I can access the machine from others
with no problem and it is able to access the Internet just fine. It just does
not see any of the other machines on the network. I checked that the
workgroup name is correct. I was thinking it might be a master browser
problem; I shut down all the machines on the network and brought up the
failing machine, waited an hour (!! that is how long it will take to
register) and then the rest of the machines. It did not help.
Thanks in advance for your help in getting to the bottom of this. It has me
really puzzled. I have not seen this problem before..
