    Vista PCs not accessible by XP Pro PCs

    Thanks guys... I followed Linney's new link as it is usually spot on advice... As it turned out just making sure that the same user and password was present on all PCs did the trick... Even works with password protected sharing off... Thanks for the quick replies... this has to be the best...

    Vista PCs not accessible by XP Pro PCs

    My small network is setup so that all shared drives can be seen. However, when trying to access any Vista drive from an XP PC it says there an issue and to contact the administrator of the server. The exact wording is the standard response.. On the Vistas ( Premium) I've set all the...

    Typing in WORD under XP locks the application

    This could be a WORD problem but may be related to XP.. This is because I've completey reformatted the drive, installed a fresh XP and installed MS Word 2002. When typing in WORD it gets so far then freezes WORD... you can type as much as you like in Outlook Express but it also locks up...

    Xp PC wont share with Vista PC

    I have a home network that has worked well prior to Vista ( I'm not suggesting Vista is at fault..) The main PC connects thru a wireless broadband router and has a common group name with the others. Each has IP addresses and gateway set. The in house laptop ( XP Pro ) has no problems with full...

    Cannot stop redirection process

    Under XP and in I.E. anytime I try to browse I get a redirection takeover the address line and nothing will appear other than the cannot display message common with say, mispelt addresses. I fancy there may be a registry fix for this but I cannot find it anywhere on google, although I'm sure I...

    Access denied despite all privileges set

    When instructed (Mailwasher Pro ) to move some application data files from my name\application data\remote to \local I cannot open those folders. Access denied I checked in User Accounts in CP and ticked everyone plus me + administrator.. I can't see any thread on it so far so maybe I'm just...

    Cant enable autoinsert

    I think that is what it is called. This is, when I place a removable media into a device I dont get the popup screen that allows me to select a temporary or permanent action for that kind of media. Can't figure out how to enable the function.

    My Adsl keeps disconnecting..

    Thanks Bc... I did that and it seemed to help.. Pudda, you may be right.. but its a real pain... I will change them both to a single 504T and see how it goes.. It seems my problems may be deeper than just that.. Over past few weeks I've had that need to "repair" the connection (this was...

    How do I return multi O.S. to just XP Pro ?

    I recently added another drive to my PC which has XP Pro running on the first HDD. Being interested in Vista I obtained the Beta version and installed into the 2nd drive, which it defaults to in the booting menu. I've found enough minor problems with my current programs under Vista ( not an...

    My Adsl keeps disconnecting..

    I have a DLink Modem/router 504 and have recently added a DLink Wireless router DI-624+ to it. It seems that since then my broadband connection appears to become "lost" but can quickly be recovered by using "repair". It's doing this regularly and I'm unable to determine why. I have the ip...

    Can't remove WIN98 splash screen

    Ah, probably not the correct term "Flash".. as that seems to relate to the preboot screen... but its the completion screen follwing any WIN98 installation

    Can't remove WIN98 splash screen

    After repairing a current corrupted 98SE installation from cab files the final 98 splash screen appears on the desktop but doesnt have the optional lower left tick box to turn it off after closing. I've tried it from within & out of the desktop but it still persists. I don't know how to get it...

    Peer to peer one way only?

    Ah... dont bother about it... its exceeded my time limit on such matters.. I'll nuke the whole PC and just reinstall. Regardless, I appreciate all your advice, and will keep it in mind for future work.

    Peer to peer one way only?

    I'm not/can't.. I mentioned it was part of a larger network.. its through a hub... I changed cables to suit.. the crossover is purely one to one..I just tried them on the hub to see how they behaved.. Sorry for the impression..
