SYMPTOMS
========
When intermediate (layered) NDIS miniport drivers are in use on Windows NT
Server 4.0, Terminal Server Edition, you may experience one or both of the
following:
- A memory leak in kernel nonpaged pool memory. Over time, memory may be
depleted to the point where system stability is compromised.
- You may receive the following blue-screen STOP error message with parameters
that indicate the bad instruction is in the Ndis.sys driver:
STOP: 0x0000000A (0x00000014, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0xFCBA1062)
IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (* Address fcba1062 has base at fcb95000 - NDIS.SYS)
CAUSE
=====
Intermediate drivers are typically add-ons that layer themselves over hardware
drivers as a filter to provide additional functionality, such as data encryption
or other value-added services. The Ndis.sys driver included in Windows NT 4.0
has been found to have some deficiencies when such intermediate drivers are
used.
