Hello,
You should start off with a Power Cycle, also restart all computers and see if everything goes back to normal.
We'll appreciate an update.

Yes. This is not an uncommon problem when using Windows 7 shares to XP clients and requires a couple registry edits to make it go away.
Best to read this article Windows 7 Nonpaged Pool Srv Error 2017 | alan.lamielle.net
However; the host for that particular site seems to be up and down frequently so I will encapsulate the pertinent quotes.
Hope this helps. I know it worked for me on several different occasions.

Is your issue that you can't see other shared computers on your network or that you can see them but not connect?
If you can't see other networked computers: Click the Start button, type Network and Sharing and make sure your Active Network is NOT listed as Public. If it is, change it to a Private, Home or Work network.
Next, change your Sharing options and make sure Network Discovery is turned on, as well as the appropriate type of sharing - Password protected or not.
Those IRP Stack registry modifications are basically memory management adjustments and have no affect on a system that can't see shares. If I understand Wsjtrade's issue correctly, they do not apply.

I can only share, from my practical experience that if Windows 7 resources become unavailable to Windows XP clients over time, then those two registry edits will fix the issue. All he has to do is check his event viewer and see if his is experiencing the same errors
And yes, not being able to see other nodes on the network would be a separate problem likely with DNS or WINS / NetBIOS depending on his environment, possibly the fault of an overzealous third party security suite.
Just trying to help here, based on some personal practical experience.
Which is indicative of the problem being present.

Hi wsjtrade,

As the PC is Windows Server 2008, it may be easier just to reformat the PC.
