That is the version of the Error, which says it can be safely ignored.

Select Start, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services, right cick
on TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper and select Properties, General tab. Use the
scroll bar to change from Automatic to Manual, click on Apply and OK.
Exit and restart your computer and the change will have been made.

Finished work for the day so I have now done some more research.

You have not posted a complete copy of the Error Report and I have
seen several variations of the basic report. Can you post a complete
report.

A tip for posting copies of Error Reports! Run Event Viewer and
double click on the error you want to copy. In the window, which
appears is a button resembling two pages. Click the button and close
Event Viewer.Now start your message (email) and do a paste into the
body of the message. Make sure this is the first paste after exiting
from Event Viewer.

Certain versions of the Error Report say "No User Action required".
This is because the system keeps trying until it suceeds. Does it
eventually suceed in your case?

I then tried to find out what contribution NetBIOS makes to the way a
computer works. What I discovered was that there are suspicions that
the service may be a left over from a past redundant arrangement. The
default Start Up type for the TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper Service is
automatic but there is a recommendation to set it to Manual.
http://www.theeldergeek.com/tcp_ip_netbios_helper.htm

My own computer is running without error with the service set to
Automatic. You could see if setting it to Manual has any adverse
affect and whether the errors cease.

"problems that may occur when administrative shares are missing"-
this can not be applied to my case.
Following tutorials from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/842715, all
results were O.K. after worked out what is suggested in a/m Article,
meaning administrative shares not missing.


Morog

That clears up that point.

Have you worked through KB Article 842715? The Article number has
not been mentioned and I do not have the time now to see whether
any of the suggestions by Nass originate from the Article.

Hi Gerry,
I 've noticed your post and confirm what you stated, the version I
have is
5.1.2600.2180 , from the SP-2 update.
I repeat I have all updates through AU.
I suspect something is wrong in my Registry regardin NetBT.
Regards,

Morog

I posted this earlier and I suspect you may haved missed the
post.

Morog

No. The version you have here C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers should
be from the SP2 update.
