NAS B2000, Phtotshop 7, windows XPPro

I have a NAS B2000 with a 1.5 TB Virtual Disk, multiple shares defined and about 250GB of data on it, spread across them. Client workstations are Windows 98, NT 4.0 Workstation, 2000 Professional, XP Professional, and MACs with OS versions 9.x.
Windows XP Pro running Photoshop 7 cannot save files to the NAS from within Photoshop, error received is "disk full". They can save from any other program, and/or windows explorer. All other client OS CAN save from Photoshop 7 to the NAS Volume. Windows XP Pro with Photoshop 5 CAN save to the NAS. Photoshop support says it is NOT a Photoshop problem, but I don't believe them. Does anyone have any ideas or has anyone seen this before?

Other, unrelated questions to follow....

Chris,
do you have space left on the B2000? Then try playing with creating volumes less than that you have right now. Let's say, create volume 100GB in size, and try. If it will work, create 500GB etc.
Did you try to reinstall photoshop? Apply XP serive pack?
BTW, are you sure that system claims that NAS volume is full? Maybe it saves file in local temporary directory first and then copies it to NAS volume, and simply there's no space left in this temporary directory or it's exceeding its limits?
Just guesses and directions to look to

The NAS is not full, about 1.25TB free.
I really can't change the volume size as they've put the system in production, I'd have to find someplace to move the data back to (it came from about fifty individual hard drives but would be between difficult and impossible to put back).
I am fairly certain it is not temp file locations being full because it happens of several workstation with the same configuration.
Are you aware of any "maximum drive/volume size" types of restrictions?
