Arcada Backup Exec Error Message: Drive Not Responding

 * }

Q134547

-

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Windows 95

-

SYMPTOMS
When you use the Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks and Arcada Backup Exec Windows Workstation version 3.58 in Windows 95, you may receive one of the following error messages:

- There are no more connections available for this device.

"-or-"

- Drive not responding.

CAUSE
There is a LASTDRIVE=Z statement in the Config.sys file.

RESOLUTION
Remove the LASTDRIVE statement from the Config.sys file.

If you must have a LASTDRIVE statement in the Config.sys file for compatibility with an MS-DOS-based program, change the LASTDRIVE statement to a last-drive letter less than Z. For example, the Config.sys file can contain the following line:

"LASTDRIVE=Y" This leaves at least one drive letter at the end of the alphabet that Arcada Backup Exec can use for temporary drive mappings.

MORE INFORMATION
The Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks handles drive mappings in protected mode properly when there is no LASTDRIVE statement in the Config.Sys file, but is bound to use the LASTDRIVE setting in the Config.Sys file if it is present. This affects the operation of Backup Exec in the Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks.
