I have all that as well checked and I still can't get into my shared folder from any other computer in the house. I went back and un-checked everything, restarted, and checked it back to the letter the way you said to and it still isn't working.
Looks like my network is just going to be a royal pain in the butt. Thank you for your help as well. I am still unable to get into my folders from any other computer on the same network. Hi I agree with Brhams. Thursday, January 22, AM.
You may not have permission to view this network resource etc I have disabled homegroup. What next? It's maddening. What was simple seems to have been made incredibly complicated. Monday, February 2, PM. Hi Peter, I suggest that you check related settings. If the issue still occur, temporary disable the firewall on the Windows 7 beta computer. Wednesday, February 4, AM. Thanks - but I had done all these things already. No use. Tuesday, February 10, PM. This problem is driving me batty.
I have done and redone everything many times over. I have followed through every walkthrough I can find. I have set and reset every option. Everything is in one workgroup have tried three different workgroup names on both machines All Documents, Music etc folders are shared and have little people icons.
I have even shared whole C drive. Permissions include "Everybody" I have tried "business" and "home" networks. Homegroup is definitely OFF. All settings in Advanced settings as suggested. Ok it include everybody, but does everybode have access? Wednesday, February 11, AM. I'm having the same problems.
With XP setting up a network was a breeze. Vista has been a pain and W7 looks like it's worse. I understand the need to have security but I would like the option to not use all the security, if I don't need it, and have a simple network configuration proceedure. The fact that there is so much discussion means that it is not intuitive. There are a lot of home and small business networks that don't need all of the bells and w histles.

I have not any problems copying from and to W7 computer from XP based computer. HopeGropup security does not affect general shares. Hi everyone, I have a very frustrating problem when I will log on to a internal shared network drive: Every time I boot up my computer, Windows XP ask me for a username and password to the network drive.
Select "Connect to a network drive". Have any person a solution for eksample via the registry? Very thanks for the answer. Regards, Anders. This thread is locked. You can follow the question or vote as helpful, but you cannot reply to this thread.
I have the same question 0. Report abuse. Details required :. Status Not open for further replies. It's worked fine with wireless and ethernet networking until recently. At home, and elsewhere, I get a message telling me that I am connected to the internet either through my wireless or through the ethernet jack : when I right-click on the connection either Local Area Connection or my wireless card, depending on what is plugged in , the "status" says that my connection is good.
Packets are sent and received although far more are sent than received. But if I try to open a browser, I get the message saying that the browser could not connect "Server not found" in Firefox. Similarly, windows tries to download updates, then the download quits. My partner is able to connect perfectly wirelessly with her Mac with no problems, and in our previous apartment I could connect to the Airport Express with no difficulty we had Comcast cable internet at the previous place.
The password for the Airport Express hasn't changed, and I tried re-entering it with no luck. It is only since moving to a new house and new provider that I've had this problem, but the problem now occurs everywhere I go, so I'm afraid I messed something up in the search for a fix, or that the move is unconnected to the problem.
I've tried disconnecting the modem and router and letting them power down and back up. I've done that with my partner's laptop turned off and with it left on. No luck so far. Plus, as I said, this problem happens everywhere, not just on our home network. Two things I've noticed: 1. Mac, she gets a different IP address Sorry to sound clueless -- but I guess I am. When I check it and "OK" my way out of those windows and go back later, it has always come unchecked and reverted to the same Preferred and Alternate DNS servers -- it's always the same numbers, no matter where I am.
Any ideas? Can anyone walk me through some fixes? Or do 1 or 2, above, point to anything important? Create a restore point, then install and run the utility found on this link. This should help. Problems like this are usually down to hardware or drivers - please make sure you have the latest sets in place and check that you have the manufacturers drivers and not the ones from Microsoft.
Thanks for the advice, tw0rld and Albert. Albert, I'm sorry to be clueless again , but I don't know how to check to make sure I have the latest drivers in place or how to get new ones I especially don't know how to get new ones without internet access!
Can you walk me through how I can check to see if I have the manufacturer's drivers rather than Microsoft's? Thanks so much. See if this fixed it. Let us know? If they have either a red or yellow mark over them then you have found the problem but I would be surprised as you have managed to get a response to ipconfig.
Right click on the network device and look at the properties - click on the driver tab and then driver details. Look at the drivers list and the provider - which should not show Microsoft as their drivers often cause trouble. If they are MS, you will have to locate the latest set for the device or reinstall them from the motherboard CD if you still have it.
Let us. Albert, thanks for these ideas. It's not been preset. The ethernet driver is Microsoft-supplied, but since it's not changed I don't know why it would suddenly give me problems. Also, the wireless card driver is from the company, and I'm getting the same problem whether I plug directly into the ethernet or whether I use wireless Is there a way to download drivers onto another machine, put them on a USB, and transfer them?
