Hi,
I'm a bit of a novice, I apologize if this is a stupid
question.
I used XP Professional to set up a home network (both
machines have XP Pro installed). I'm getting the above
error message in the event viewer but I've been unable to
find any reference to it for XP.
There are a couple of references to it for 2000. Any help
is greatly appreciated.
thanks.
 
I'm a novice too when it comes to networking, and the
first time I tried to get our network setup it wound up
being a very challenging experience. First of all, take a
look at this article:

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=325487

It helped me out greatly. We had numerous MRxSMB errors
and warnings and other types of warnings and errors. One
thing that really helped shortcut solving the problem was
not only looking at the warnings and errors, but any
System Information events that are found just preceeding
the errors and possibly within the errors.

For example, we found that as soon as the System
Information Event said our router's protocol drivers were
sent a start control, always, the errors followed without
fail. And, another System Information Event that
consistantly came after a certain set of errors/warnings
would always say "Network adaptor malfunctioned" - So at
least I had a starting point, even though I didn't quite
understand everything that was happening in between.
