unable to load device driver mrxsmb.sys

[kashew]

After loading SP2, I could not get Win2000 to boot up, so I wiped my drive and re-installed Win2000 successfully. Everything worked fine until I loaded SP2 again. This time I kept getting a "unable to load device driver mrxsmb.sys" error. I promptly uninstalled SP2 and everything is once again running correctly. Can anyone provide me some insight on the problem?

I'm running an Athlon 800MHz with 256M ram.
