Not enough Storage

Hi I am getting loads of errors saying "Not enough storage is avalable to compleate this operation." My sound is not working and loads of things (services mainly) are not working. I have 2 GB of ram and 20 GB of space on my hard drive.

Thanks for your help in advance

Hello jammie999,

As you don't say you have been doing anything different with your machine recently, I assume you haven't.

It is good idea to check if any malware is present. You could download. install, update and scan with a couple of free ones , like Spybot

The home of Spybot-S&D!

and a-squared free 3.5

a-squared Anti-Malware (a2) Download - Free Downloads of the Trial- and Freeware-Versions

You may then like to try a system restore to a point before these problems began

System Restore - How to


Hope that helps

Re: Not enough Storage


I have the same problem when I am trying to access a shared drive over
the network. I did some googeling and I think it has something to do
with IRPStackSize.........I haven't had the chance to try and fix it yet
when I found the fix on the internet but I will give it a go tonight
when I get home.

Re: Not enough Storage

Hi jammie,

If it's system restore that is telling you there's not enough space, it could be you have it set up to operate on partitions other than the one which has 20gb free.

Do you have an OEM machine with all sorts of odd things like a recovery and eisa partition ?

To make sure

opensystemprotection2008-10-01_215147.jpeg

system-restore2008-10-01_214844.jpeg

Only check the box for the partition you want restore points for, then click Apply, then OK.

Hope this helps
