Webpart Error due to Space Crunch

When you view the home page of a Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services site, you may receive the following error message for Webparts:
Web Part Error: One of the properties of the Web Part has an incorrect format. Windows SharePoint Services cannot deserialize the Web Part. Check the format of the properties and try again.

The cause and resolution for this error as provided by microsoft has discussed regarding the access rights.

Ok that could be the cause. But in some cases even if all the configurations are mentioned correctly as provided in the above artilce there are chances of the above error. This is due to less disk space on the server where sharepoint is hosted. So before changing or modifying the access configurations do check the disk space first.The above error may also result due to the low disk space on the server where sharepoint is hosted.
