samba - Mar 2004 - Newbie question: "Windows - Delayed write failed"

I ran into this problem all of a sudden out of nowhere......I boted several
times and it appeared to fix itself...windows XP....but it did not....so I again
hit the F8 when rebooting....and instead of trying to boot into the safe mode I
rebooted into the DEBUGGING MODE........I don't know what happened.....but I
did not loose any data and it booted up as if nothing happened....I then went to
system restore under system tools and restored to the day earlier...just in case
something happened today to my machine to make it do this.....hope this helps.

My goodness.   I'll just say what everyone else is thinking...  What on
earth are you on about?   

You've told us absoultely nothing about:

A) your network setup (assuming you are actually posting about samba)
B) clear points about what was working and is now not.

Delayed write failed means that it couldn't write to a drive, and I'm
fairly
sure that writing to network drives from XP doesn't use delayed write,
that's only on hard drives etc....

<sigh>  system restore to try to fix a connection to samba?  Now I've
heard
it all.
