A few days ago I had exactly the same problem so I when to HP's forum site (http://forums.itrc.hp.com) and searched for "defragmenter lockup" and found all kinds of clues. The one I used was to use msconfig and remove several startup files that I knew about and it ran just fine.

My home network is made up of a LinkSys wireless router connected to a DSL modem. My XP machine (a fairly new HP from Best Buy) is directly connected to the router while my Win 98 machine (a new install on an old Win 95 PC) connects via the wireless. Only the TCP/IP protocol is installed...

Well, I just added SP2a to 5.1 and it worked. Did you try doing the whole thing over again - starting out with the expansion of the nw51sp2a.exe file? I assume that you have checked the NDS effective rights of admin at both the [root] and at your O=whatever.....

You might want to try the very latest client (3.3 if Win95/98, 4.8 if NT/2000).

Did you try "MAP ROOT S:=......"???

If there is "only" a subordinate on that server, then you "should" be able to remove directory services and then "Install directory services" back on that computer. I guess I would be sure to have a good backup of NDS before doing anything. Then try a dsrepair first.

You really can't use VLMs with the latest Intel 10/100 cards - at least I haven't been able to - so we've switched to the DOS 32bit client when necessary.

If you have internet access, use an NTP source (e.i., 128.118.25.3:123) and set the hardware clock to off. If this IP addr is no good, yahoo the term "ntp" and you will find lots more.

I've never installed a SP from a CD, my preference has always been the Internet download. But let's try some debugging techniques. Maybe there is actually something wrong with the CD or maybe something wrong with your CD player, etc. <br><br>I guess I would first make space on one of your server...

<br>Any chance of running out of packet receive buffers???

Hmmmm, you might try putting the client software on your c: or d:, go to the admin directory in the client software and completely remove the client software and then reinstall it.<br> What looks like is happening is that somehow the winsock.dlls didn't get updated. During the normal NetWare...

Well, yeah. Anytime your workstation can't see the fileserver, you will get messages like this. Now what's wrong???<br> 1. Protocol problems (server is IPX, ws is IP or server is 802.3 IPX and ws is 802.2 IPX).<br> 2. Someone has actually disconnected your ws from the network.<br> 3. Bad hub...
