 Last reviewed: January 8, 1998
Article ID: Q151427
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows NT Workstation versions 3.51 and 4.0
  • Microsoft Windows NT Server versions 3.51 and 4.0

SYMPTOMS

After you install network services for the first time you may receive the following system events in the event log: 

   Event ID: 7023
   Source: Service Control Manager
   Type: Error
   Description: The Server service terminated with the following error:
                Not enough server storage is available to process this
                command.

   Event ID: 7001
   Source: Service Control Manager
   Type: Error
   Description: The Computer browser service depends on the server
                service which failed to start because of the following
                error:  Not enough server storage is available to
                process this command.
When you try to start the server service at the command line using the command: 

   NET START SERVER
the following error message appears: 

   System error 1130 has occurred.
   Not enough server storage is available to process this command.
This problem will typically occur with computers that come from the OEM with Windows NT preinstalled.

CAUSE

This problem will occur if Windows NT is installed and the latest Service Pack is installed before the network card is installed. If Srv.sys is not present when the Service Pack is applied it will not be updated because Update.exe will only update components that are installed on the Windows NT system. When Windows NT starts up after the network card has been installed, Windows NT SRV.SYS is being used. To correctly work with the rest of the updated system files, the Server service must be updated to the same version as the installed Service Pack.

RESOLUTION

Reapply the Windows NT Service Pack.
