Windows Err Msg: System Error Network Error Reading Drive <x> (66728)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows 3.0
- Microsoft Windows 3.0a
This article was previously published under Q66728 SYMPTOMS
The following message occurs on 3Com 3+Share networks and Microsoft
Networks (MS-Net) when you open and close Microsoft Windows version
3.0 File Manager (WINFILE.EXE):
System Error
Network Error Reading Drive <x>
where "<x>" is the name of the drive.
The message dialog box has OK and Cancel buttons that work only after
repeated attempts to use them. This error occurs only if Windows is
installed to run completely off the network server.
CAUSE
This error occurs only if both the shared network directory and
your directory appear to be root directories, they are both in the
path, and Windows is started from your directory.
WORKAROUND
Change one of the directories so it is not the root directory of the
drive letter being used.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Windows version
3.0. This problem was corrected and does not occur in later versions of
Windows.
