The browser service has failed to retrieve the backup list too many times on transport \Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{2A2DE7AB-37A8-40B1-9DC1-A77D03947F26}. The backup browser is stopping. (error found in events log) what can I do to solve this problem??
 
what is the error message that you are getting thats not in the event log? and i'm guessing you have Win XP?

This is a common error I hate! Here are the common causes.
A.) File and Printer sharing is disabled.
B.) The master browser is multi-homed (has more than 1 NIC) and File and Print Sharing is bound to more than one of them, or the NIC with File and Print Sharing is NOT the primary NIC.
C.) Having the NetBEUI protocol installed can cause this error.

To remedy correct one of the situations above. Enable File and Print sharing on all domain controllers, and any computer in the browse list. This error is related to NETBIOS.
