Asked By joep_lagarde 10 points N/A Posted on - 09/24/2012

I was monitoring and writing files from my computer to another computer when I got this Error 56.

I used ErrMsg Lookup tool to know what it is, and it is a network bios command limit error.

How do I fix this?

Hello Joep,

You will need to add a REG_DWORD registry entry FCNMode  and then set its value to 2 to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREWow6432NodeMicrosoftASP.NET.

For more information on the possible values for the FCNMode DWORD value as well as the behavior that is associated with each value, check here. Network BIOS command limit has been reached

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Nicke
