Just Reformatted Computer And Now Unable To View Other Computers?

Jun 12, 2012

my brother gave me a new motherboard last weekend and I had to reformat consequently, since then however I have been unable to view or access my netbook or network drive. Before reformatting I was running on Windows 7 ultimate x32 and I am now running on the same however in x64 instead. I know that my network is working as I can access my network drive through my netbook but I am unable to see my computer or netbook through both devices, but seen as my net-book was able to see my pc prior to reformatting I am pretty sure it is an issue with my computer. I have done all the usual checks through the network and sharing center to ensure that everything is shared correctly and that network discovery is turned on.

Reformatted Computer, Abysmal Connection?

Sep 27, 2011

i reformatted my hard drive 3 weekends ago after getting a new ssd. i have my windows 7 and adobe cs5 installed on my ssd. everything else is on my trusty, old hard drive. when i re-formatted, i used an ultimate boot cd > darik's boot & nuke. it took 15 hours! if there was anything naughty on there then i sure as heck was determined to get rid of it.before i formatted i had the occasional internet hiccup (it's comcastic!) but nothing to cry about. but now...i literally can't do anything i used to do.downloading anything takes forever. there's constant hang-ups and time-outs.also i love to play games online, but this problem is causing me nothing but headaches. i've been playing fallout 3 lately and i'm constantly disconnected from windows live/steam because my connection is so poor.if i want to watch a Internet video then i have to have the foresight to buffer for a good time before i want to actually enjoy it. this goes for netflix as well, you can forget about watching anything on there... last night i wanted to watch a video with a friend. it was 12 minutes long. it took me 15 minutes to buffer...at 240p. pathetic right?

using skype is virtually impossible now too. i keep getting slow connection speed errors/messages and my friend and i look like we're 8-bit characters.!but the thing is...i swapped to skype last night on my phone before bed to talk with my friend and the connection seemed absolutely fine. no hiccups or bumps or anything. and the picture seemed crisp as could be (well, as far as my iphone 3gs can get anyway!)i keep getting "no internet access" errors when trying to connect to my router. my parents live across the street. since i used to live with them i still have the code for their internet. i'm using it now because it works better than my connection in the living room. how sad is that?

- searched forums! most everything i find points to spyware/malware/viruses. i could re-format again this weekend but i don't see how it's possible that anything naughty clung to my hard drive after using darik's boot & nuke 3 weekends ago;

- swapped out my router, same undesirable result;

- reset router and modem, that didn't seem to change anything;

- run memtest86, i did this test overnight, 8 hours later and there were 0 errors, so i know my ram isn't the issue...

i might be a bit ignorant when it comes to these things but i'm really at my wits end with this. it's been 3 weeks and i can't seem to figure out why my internet is so unreliable. and i did check on comcast's website, i'm at 80% of the cap for this month. so i haven't gone over.i swapped back to my connection to try and get a speedtest.net reading but i timed out each time after 5 minutes of trying to access that website. and well...i'm back on my parent's connection.

View Memory On Remote Computers?

Jun 9, 2010

In XP, I was able to get memory information from remote computers by right-clicking Computer, Manage Computer, Action, Connect to Another Computer, type in the computer name, then right click on the computer and and click on properties to get the memory information. Can you get information on memory from remote systems in Windows 7? I sometimes need to do this to determine if I need to order more RAM for systems that are being upgraded in an enterprise environment.

Unable To View Online Videos?

May 29, 2012

I have a windows 7 64bit laptop and a window vista 64bit laptop.

I seem to be unable to view some of the videos on the windows 7 laptop but able to view those same videos on vista laptop. the error is normally "200, Stream not found, NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound, clip". Is it a settings problem as both of my laptops are installed with the same version of flash players.

I have tried to uninstall the flash player and re-install the flash player but the error still persist.

Unable To Access Computers In Workgroup

Nov 29, 2011

I've added a new laptop to my home network (now 3 computers, all of them with win 7 ultimate 64) . I didn't use home group because i don't like it, so i configured everything manually and everything worked great, file sharing. printer sharing, everything. And then I added a password to my user on the new laptop to protect it and the sharing between the laptop and the two other computers stopped working. when i try to access the laptop from another computer it reports i have no access, and when i try to access one of the computers from the laptop it asks for a user name and password.i uninstalled firewall - didn't help. reinstalled. i removed the password - problem solved. added password again - problem returns.

Unable To Network Two Windows 7 64bit New Computers

Oct 8, 2012

Yes, I have read the many network issues associated with Windows 7 64 bit Computers(as with other OS's).Have have tried many suggestions... everything seems to be set the way it is suppose to be, but I am still unable to share files between two Windows 7 64 bit Computers.

My Equipment:

Two new Windows 7 Premium 64 bit Computers (Service Pack 1), one is a Dell XPS 8500, the other built by NCIX... both are Intel i7 processors. One is using an add on NIC card (Intel) and the other using the internal NIC card(Realtek drivers).I have attempted to create a homegroup with both computer with success. The other computer was able to join the homegroup also with success.The issue is that I can see both computers listed in the network and sharing center, also in windows explorer on each computer. If I double click on either computer icon and either computer, I get this error message (see ntw1.png)

Unable To Sync Computers Over Ethernet Cable

Dec 28, 2009

I have just installed Windows 7 Ultimate on my laptop and now find that I can no longer sync (I'm using Syncback SE) over a patch cable between ethernet ports. I had previously been doing this quite effectively on Windows XP and my procedure was.

1. Both computers were in the same workgroup and accessed the same wireless network (secure).

2. Ethernet patch cable - usually showed up in the lower right corner as having 'limited or no access'.

3. Shared my user folder on the laptop (after disabling wireless for security - but this worked whether wireless was disabled or not)

4. Ran Syncback SE ver 4.1.3.0. and synced my files between the laptop and desktop.

Then I bought Win7U for the desktop, and the same procedure as above worked fine between Win7U-desktop and WinXP-laptop.

Then I bought Win7U for the laptop, and what happened next was odd :

1. It worked like a dream - really fast transfers etc, scanning very fast. I think that at this time I had somehow managed to put both in the homegroup but they were communicating over the ethernet.

2. As the sync was taking place I launched ITunes and synced my iPhone. It may be coincidence, but the ethernet cable connection was lost at that point.

3. Now I cannot re-establish the ethernet connection.

What is the correct procedure for achieving what I'm trying to do above ? Why does HomeGroup insist on using my wireless connection instead of using the ethernet cable direct connection ?

<whine on> In my close to 20 years of using Microsoft Windows, why haven't they managed to make two Windows PCs recognise each other and share files quickly and simply, like you can with that other OS.....<whine off>

Boot Manger Is Missing / Unable To View Hard Drives

Sep 13, 2012

I have a brand new Sony SVT13112FXS - hard drive is a hybrid of 500 GB HDD and 32 GB SDD.I was attempting to reformat it to get all of the anti-virus stuff off, except when I tried to reformat no disks were shown in the reformat tool. It asked for drivers, so I assumed I'd need to install the SATA/chipset drivers. I downloaded them from the Sony website but it wouldn't allow me to install them (from a flash drive). Specifically the error is "No drives were found. Click load driver to provide a mass storage driver for installation."In my troubleshooting I (stupidly) marked the wrong partition as active and got the dreaded "bootmgr is missing" upon restart. I attempted to repair using the windows 7 disk as a recovery tool and selected "startup repair" 3 times, but it still does not work.I am able to get into command prompt and I am assuming I can inactivate the (wrong) active partition there. However, when I go into DISKPART and type "list disk", all that shows up is my flash drive that I am attempting to install windows from - the computers hard drive does NOT show up here.I will also happily completely reformat instead of repairing, but I cannot do that since I can't get the disks to show up in the reformat tool.

Installed Comodo Firewall - Unable To View System Specifications

Dec 1, 2010

This happened after I installed Comodo firewall. I'm not sure if that is relevant though. Anyway, I tried running the command "sfc /snannow" in the command prompt (in admin mode) but to no avail even after I restarted the system. Also, I can no longer create a system restore point manually. Which when clicked "create a restore point", they will show me these errors.

Unable To Connect To Active Directory User And Computers

I have encounter a problem where my "Active directory users and computer" function suddenly unable to connect to my remote server. I have run a nslookup and below are the reply

C:>nslookup
Default Server: Unknown
Address: 10.10.2.6

I also have a virtual XP running in the notebook that I am using, So I try to install the adminpak and run the Active directory users and computer and what a surprise it work. I have try to reformat the notebook and the problem still occur after I use it...

I tired of reformatting. Update on the troubleshooting of the problem I am encountering, I find out that the windows 7 that I am running is not able to resolve any PC name on my network. I am mentioning this because went I am using the virtual machine install in the notebook (Win XP) to remote desktop to other PC using the desktop name it is working fine.

Removing Shares From Computer View

Dec 11, 2009

On Thursday this week I upgraded my XP machine to Windows 7 (actually created a dual-boot system) and generally I find it to be OK. I have one or two gripes but most I'll get used to. However, one thing that does annoy me rather intensely is that ALL shared folders/drives on our home network show up in 'Computer' view in Windows Explorer - all 45 of them.

I find this particularly irritating and I've been searching the internet for hours for a way of removing them, all with no success. Perhaps I'm not really sure what search term I should use and I recognise I may well be missing some new feature in Windows 7 that is NOT in XP - but I really don't know what.

So, a question please: is there a way of removing those shares from 'Computer' view, i.e. the top level view where all the drives are shown (My Computer in XP)?

View A Windows Image Backup On A Different Computer?

Jun 14, 2012

I had a Sony laptop that originally had Vista and was upgraded to Windows 7. I recently got a new Lenovo laptop and purchased brand new application software so I could get a clean installation. After 1 month of running both systems and gradually moving material over to the Lenovo, I cleaned the Sony and did a recovery to the original, store bought condition. Now I realize that I failed to move over some pictures. I have a Windows Image of the Sony on an external hard drive. Is there a way I can get the pics from the Windows Image onto the new Lenovo?

Stream Content From One Computer To Many Computers?

Aug 14, 2011

I want to stream content over a LAN. One computer will act as the "content host" and one or more computers will act as "content clients". Is there any software that can stream content from one computer to several computers.

My network contains DHCP addresses, and it is comprised of Windows 7 x64 Professional Computers.

Ideally the "content streaming" solution will be compatible with Multiple Operating Systems.

Windows 7 Computer Can't See Other Networked Computers?

Jan 1, 2011

My Windows 7 Ultimate x64 machine recently stopped being able to communicate with any other machines on the network.It can ping them by name, but can't browse to any shared folders or use any shared services.I do have one networked printer, but access was via http so it seems to work. The big problem is that I have some Windows XP machines that have shared folders and shared printers and I can not access them.Here are the details of my setup.

- Linksys WRT54G router drives the internet (updated to latest firmware)

- Windows 7 Ultimate x64 machine plugged directly into WRT54G ethernet port

- Epson Workforce printer plugged into ethernet port

- 2 Windows XP machines connected via wireless

- 1 Windows 7 32-bit laptop connected via wireless

Since the Epson worked fine I thought may it is a wireless issue or maybe an issue connecting from Windows 7 to Windows XP.I went through hundreds of forum posts about people with issues connecting to XP with no luck (i.e. network discovery is on, file/print sharing is enabled, all machines on the same Workgroup, etc.).All of the various XP machines can see each other, ping each other, and browse each other's shared folders.In fact, all of said machines are capable of browsing the Windows 7 64-bit machine's shared folders, but it can't browse theirs.

From the Windows 7 machine I can ping all of the others by IP or even by hostname, but if I put "\hostname" in the run dialog, it can't make a connection.In the Network & Sharing Center I do see the other Windows 7 32-bit laptop in the network map, but I can't browse to it's shared folders.I can RDP this laptop by connecting to the IP address with remote desktop.I can ping the XP machines by IP or name, but they do not show up at all in the network map and I can't browse to them from the run dialog.A few months ago I could never access these machines by "\hostname" but if I put in "\IP_ADDRESS" it would pop up a username/password box and I could get in.This is now no longer working either.I've tried numerous things and from the firewall/network settings it seems like everything is set up to be able to discover other machines, but it still won't work. Something changed on my Windows 7 machine that has locked it from doing any outgoing connections.

Cannot See Homegroup Computer And Connect To Networked Computers

Nov 15, 2011

i have 4 networked computers (all connected through ethernet cables) They used to talk to each other fine. Now one (Call it KPC) is able to access all of the computers but none can access it. Another computer (RPC) says that it does not have permission to access it, even though i have all my file sharing turned on.

It used to ask me for a password and even though i would enter the correct password (the same on all computers) it said "logon failed: wrong username or bad password".

Also I have added KPC to the RPC homegroup using the password and it just doesnt show up on the RPC homegroup page. I really NEED RPC to be able to access KPC's everything (documents, printers etc) the rest arent a big deal at all. What happened and why did it just stop working??

Unable To See Home Network Computers In Windows Explorer Network Screen

May 14, 2012

Unable to see home network computers in Windows Explorer Network screen.

I have a home network with 2 laptops and 1 desktop. The desktop I use as a "file server" in that all work done on the laptops is stored to the desktop. The desktop computer name is HAL. One laptop is fine and sees the network. The other just stopped seeing it; rebooted the laptop; rebooted HAL; did a number of refreshes without any luck. I opened EXCEL and found a worksheet that was listed that I knew was saved on HAL. Was able to open the file and when I tried the SAVE AS I could navigate through all of HAL just as normal. Went to Windows Explorer and still no HAL listed as a COMPUTER on the NETWORK. I have a internet connection so I know I am making it to the router at least. And when I check NETWORK AND SHARING CENTER it shows an active home network. The laptop is running Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1 Build 7601.
