SYMPTOMS
You have a system with more than one CPU and Services for Macintosh installed. Under stress, the server intermittently stops with the following error:

STOP 0x0000000a (parameter, parameter, parameter, parameter)

NOTE: This problem has been observed while using a SysKonnect FDDI adapter, but it may occur with other NDIS drivers as well.



CAUSE
This problem is caused because you are using a network interface card (NIC) driver that is written as a "full NDIS driver" to gain maximum performance, which causes synchronization problems in Sfmsrv.sys, a component of Services for Macintosh.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Windows NT 4.0 or Windows NT Server 4.0, Terminal Server Edition. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
