RE: Unable to start network drives

You need the latest Service Pack, SF46059, mentioned in this APAR - or
as a quick fix, if you don't need it removed the USB (Universal Serial
Bus) support (see the PROBLEM SUMMARY section below):

  ERROR DESCRIPTION:
   See SA59340.  SA59340 only fixed the problem on Windows 95
   retail version 4.00.950a.  Under the OEM Service Release 2
   (OSR2) version of windows 95, the error will still occur.
 
   The message
       CWBIFS.VXD cannot fix RESUMETHREAD()
   will be reported in the Client Access history log.
 
   OSR2 will show version 4.00.950b.  Right click "My Computer"
   and select properties to display the windows 95 version.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  LOCAL FIX:
 
 
  PROBLEM SUMMARY:
  Microsoft Windows 95 OEM Service Release 2 (OSR2) is an OEM
  Service Release of Windows 95.  Currently, there is no retail
  version of Windows 95 OSR2 available.  It is available from some
  PC Manufacturers who preload it on the new PCs they sell to the
  public.
 
  An OSR2 Version of Windows 95 can be identified by checking the
  properties of "My Computer" for "4.00.950 B" or checking for the
  version "4.00.1111" at a MS-DOS prompt.
 
  OSR2 may have the Universal Serial Bus (USB) Supplement
  installed.  This can be verified by selecting "Add/Remove
  Programs" in the Control Panel and checking if "USB Supplement
  to OSR2" is displayed.
 
  Problems have been found with Network Drives on OSR2 and OSR2
  with USB, pertaining to some applications that use the Windows
  ResumeThread() and SuspendThread() functions.  Also, Network
  Drives fails to run on OSR2 with the USB Supplement installed.
  The message "CWBNW6101 - Unable to start Network Drives" is
  displayed.
 
 
  PROBLEM CONCLUSION:
 
 
  TEMPORARY FIX:
 
 
  COMMENTS:
  This PTF fixes the reported problem.  Network
  drive functions now work with all versions
  of windows 95, including OSR2 and OSR2 with
  USB support.
