I can see and use them fine in the normal Windows Explorer (File Manager).

Drives are set for sharing
sharing is "simple"
firewall is off

error messages ..."might not have permission..."
(I am sole user with full permissions.)

"Not enough server storage to process command."
Drives have more than 40 to 90 GB free.
Computer RAM 1.5 GB of memory.
Cl drive has 60 GB free.
I am sure this message means something else than a memory shortage.

How do I get access to these drives via LAN?

Is the error message one of these?

Not enough server storage is available to process this command.

Not enough memory to complete transaction. Close some applications and retry.

If so, the message is very misleading. The problem is probably that
an antivirus program has changed an obscure TCP/IP setting. Please
see this Microsoft Knowledge Base article for a likely solution,
specifying a value of 15 for IRPStackSize on the "server" computer:

Antivirus Software May Cause Event ID 2011
http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb;en-us;177078

Yes, of course, as I noted, the "memory" message is misleading.
As a result of the help of this community, you have helped me to resolution. Thank you for knowledge and contribution you are willing to share.
I followed the suggestion (above from Chuck) to add "IRPStackSize to HK Local machine\system\currentcontrolset\services\lanmanserver\parameters.
I modified in the DECIMAL mode and imputed the value of 48.
This works and I am verrrrry happpppy.
Will MS ever get it close to right?
Thank all y'all for this help.
The communal democracy of knowledge is much better than mystery.
