System Has Recovered from a Serious Error after every restart

When you reboot after Windows crashes, the operating system reports to you that Windows has recovered from a serious error.

However, you maybe getting this message every time you restart, even when there has been no error.

What causes that?

Itʹs a known problem caused by a flag set on the paging file, but you can fix it by installing the latest service pack for XP.

However, sometimes you donʹt want to install service packs because of compatibility issues with certain applications.

After you install Norton AntiVirus for Windows, or IBM AntiVirus 3.01N (Build 301.590), you receive the following error messages:‐

Not enough server storage is available to process this command.

Or

Not enough memory to complete transaction.

Close some applications and retry.

Clients cannot access network shares.

Additionally, Event Viewer on the Windows server may log one or more of the following event messages in the system log: Event ID : 2011

Source : Srv

Description: The Serverʹs configuration parameter ʺIRPStackSizeʺ is too small for the server to use a local device. Please increase the value of this parameter.

The solution to this is once again a trip to the Registry. So do not forget to implement My Tip on the Registry in first Edition.

Go to :‐

Start > Run In the box type without the Quotes “ Regedit “.

Scroll to :‐

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters

In the right‐hand window, double‐click the IRPStackSize value.

__**Note: ‐**__

If the IRPStackSize value does not already exist, use the following procedure to create it:‐

a. In the Parameters folder of the registry, right‐click the right pane.

b. Point to New, and then click DWord Value.

c. Type IRPStackSize.

__**Important: ‐**__

Type ʺIRPStackSizeʺ exactly as it is displayed because the value name is __**casesensitive**__.

Change the Base to decimal.

In the Value Data box, type a value that is larger than the value that is listed.

If you created the IRPStackSize value using the procedure described above the default value should be 15.

It is recommended that you increase the value by 3.

Therefore, if the previous value was 11, type 14, and then click OK.

Close the Registry Editor.

Restart the computer.

If the problem persists after you complete the preceding procedure, try to increase the value of IRPStackSize even more.

The maximum value for Windows 2000 is 50 (0x32 hex).
