Q248886

-

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Windows 95

-

SYMPTOMS
When you start your Windows 95-based computer, you may receive the following error message:

A Fatal Exception 0E has occurred at 0028:C0026416 in VXD IFSMGR (01) + 00003672

CAUSE
This behavior can occur if your network contains only Windows 95-based computers and several log on attempts occur at the same time.

RESOLUTION
To resolve this behavior, disable the browse server duties on all but one of the computers in your network:


 * 1) Right-click Network Neighborhood, and then click Properties.
 * 2) On the Configuration tab, click the File And Printer Sharing For Microsoft Networks component, and then click Properties.
 * 3) In the Property box, click Browse Master, and then click Disabled in the Value box.
 * 4) Click OK.

NOTE: At least one computer in each workgroup must have the ability to become themaster browse server. If browse server capability is disabled on all the computers in a network, browse functionality is disabled. A network storm will ensue as clients will be unable to locate the browse master and will force an election.
