Hi, this is strange. I run SOHO network of three computers through a wireless router. 2 computers run Windows XP, the other Vista. We share data on by mapping the hard drive on one of the XP computers. Most time this works perfectly but recently I have had a problem accessing it through the Vista computer.
I map the drive as J: using My Computer. On the Vista computer I can see and browse the drive through windows explorer, including opening and saving files. But when I try and access the drive via the MS-DOS prompt I get the error message "The system cannot find the drive specified". The other XP computer has no problem accessing J:
I have tried re-boooting, doing a power down cycle with the router, shutting down the firewall.
I hope someone can help, this function is essential for some legacy DOS software we run.
Thanks
