I've installed an external hard drive on an XP computer which is part of a home/office network. For quite a while the drive was accessible fine, but lately when I try to access it from another computer I get an error message that the device is not accessible, not enough memory is available. It worked fine before.

I've even tries moving the drive to other computers, still the same. Sharing is allowed. What is up with this??

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
