I am having a huge amount of trouble setting up a simple home network between my laptop and my desktop. Heres what I have done so far..
Desktop is connected via ethernet cable through a wireless modem.
Laptop is connwected via wifi to the wireless modem.
both of the computers are connected to the same network.
Folders are shared have been shared
Computers are in the same workgroup called "workgroup".
I can see both computers on the network from each computer.
From either computer when i try to click the a shared folder I do not have permission to access BlimNet-PCD or something else in this format.
I was pretty sure I had the firewall set up right and I have even tryed disbling it on both computers. I'm pretty sure it has to do with setting user permissons.
When i right click and go to advanced sharing for the folder and try to give permissions I cant see any users over the network only my user name on that computer. The user names are different for each computer.
How do I give permission to a user account on another computer on the network?
Ie. if my laptop username is "Kyle" and the desktop is "BlimNet" how do i give permission to BlimNet-PCBlimnet from Kyle-Laptopkyle.
both computers are running Windows 7 ultimate, homegroup doesnt work either.
I am new to Windows 7, and am unable as yet to get my documents to print from any program. I have installed multiple printers (different manufacturers) in an attempt to find something compatible, but I believe my problem to be tied to the network. I am running Windows 7 64 bit, with Office 2007. I have installed a Xerox Phaser 6360 DN printer via the network at work. The printer is connected, as I can open the properties and see that the yellow toner is low. Newest/compatible driver from Xerox website is installed; yet whenever I send a document (or test page) to the printer, in the status window after a few minutes the status changes from "Printing" to "Error - Printing".
I'd like to share a folder only for a certain user on a LAN. I'm on Windows 7-hp and the user is on XP-h. But when I go to assign permissions, the Location field only allows choices from my Windows 7 machine. If I put the XP user's name in directly, it flags that error.The Windows 7 user is an admin, and I've tried this with both an XP admin and user account.Surely there is some way to do this? Or alternatively, is there some way to do this via subnets?
I just want to share my problem regarding with the folder copying with the same permissions. Here's the scenario I installed domain server in my company and create a users ofcourse and in client pc we make 2 partitions in it(hard drive) C & D on drive D I make a folder Users with the permissions.
- C Drive OS Installed and basic programs - D Drive (with Users folder)
This is where I want to put the profiling on every users login on a client pc. My problem is:
1. How can I copy the Users folder in every client pc with the same permissions so I don't need to set in one by one on a client pc. 2. If there's a software or simple program that can do such thing transferring a folder to another pc over network with the same permission.
Alright so here's my scenario:- I have a small home network with 3 PCs, which I'll call "PC 1", "PC 2", and "PC 3".- "Folder X" is stored on "PC 1".- I want to have "Folder X" accessible from "PC 1" and "PC 2", but NOT accessible from "PC 3".How can I do this?I've been trying to get this to work for a little while, fiddling with file sharing permissions, but I'm a novice when it comes to networking and permissions. Does anyone know how this might be done correctly? Additionally, I'd also like to set it up so that if any additional PCs are added to the network, they do not have access to "Folder X" by default.
I remember seeing a while ago that nvidia were doing some schme where you trade in your old gpu and you get money off a new gpu but i recently went on the nvidia site and could not find the option for this have they stoped doing this for the uk or something?
my PC is not giving me any sound either its headphone,internal speaker ,external speakers but my drivers are good it says in device manager "device is working properly"
My Windows 7 system has begun to post some errors which I don't know how to correct: "Cannot load microsoft.net/framework/v4.030319/mscoreei.dll" and Service Pak 1 for Windows 7 installation failed.
when it goes to log in, a profile unable to login service error comes up. Is it have to do with the F drive? Is there something other than just the Drive letter, that windows looks for when searching for the users folder to login? Like HDD id/serials or something like that?
I have some flv videos and burn them on a dvd disk but it says error when I try to play it. I think I need to convert them over to something but I have no idea where to start. Sorry I'm new here and aint ever burnt a successful dvd yet. So I had look for help. Tell me what I need to download and what to burn it with etc. And I've tried downloading this dvdflick software but every time stops loading...
My computer just shut itself down on its own last night.Upon restart all I get is an HP screen that says hit esc. to go to startup menu, and it takes me to a screen with like 5 different options. If you don't hit esc at the beginning it goes to a black screen with a white line looks like a cursor line.
I had great success with this forum (and Elmer in particular) in diagnosing and helping to fix the problem with my desktop. I'm now going for the double whammy and hoping for similar help with my laptop. It's an Acer Aspire 5536G. I've had it for about 2 years or so, and it was fine for the first 8-10 months, but then started displaying some very choppy performance. Basically it runs fine for about 15 seconds, then get very slow and choppy for the next 15-20 seconds. THen it's fine again for 15 seconds... and so on. It came with Vista pre-installed, which I upgraded to Windows 7 (32-bit) a couple of months ago hoping to resolve the problem. It has made no difference. I also had a HD problem with it (it corrupted and failed to boot). I was told by several different people that a faulty HD could be the cause of the choppiness. I've now replaced the HD with a spanking new one, reinstalled everything, and I've got the same issue. It happens principally whilst gaming, and sometimes while watching video. For a while I thoguht it was an overheating issue, but I bought a cooling base with a fan in it which certainly cools the laptop right down to touch (I assume it's much cooler inside too), but makes no difference to its performance.
I am hoping someone can help. I have 2 machines both running windows 7 64-bit with XP mode installed. On one, I have successfully loaded and run my program perfectly without a single hiccup but with the other it installs fine but will not open. All I get is a fatal errorE. The same install disc was used for both machines and I have checked to verify that all files are there.
i'm trying to give my pc boot music (i have had this in an advanced theme before)does anybody know how this can be done?E.G. what file extension, what maximum size this file can be,where this file should be located, or if this is even possible in the first place,but if anyone responds,
I have a emachine e725 running windows 7 32bit and a acer running on windows vista. My emachine recently crashed in the blue screen and I tried to complete a system restore. I was able to get through the advanced boot menu and use the repair your computer option to restore windows. During the windows setup process I got another blue screen and the computer restarting. It then started the process over and once it got to the step that says windows is preparing setup, it gives an error msg saying something along the lines of windows was interupted and needs to restart to complete installation, and it has an option to press ok. This cycle continues and I can not open in safe mode because it says "windows can not complete the installation in safemode. Also the option to repair your computer in the advanced menu options is no longer available. So after wrestling with windows starting up I decided to create a back up and restore disc on my acer for my windows 7 computer. I tried putting it on a disc but it would not boot. So I tried creating a installation disc of windows 7 and tried booting from the cdrom drive. Once I did that I got a error msg saying "device driver not found: MSCD001 No valid cdrom device drivers selected. It then gives me the A:>. Im not sure if I created the disc wrong since I cant unzip the entire file I downloaded with needing an encryption password.

I Installed CrossFire Having played it before i upgraded, and it gave me a blue screen. I though " oh i did something wrong " So i unistalled and reinstalled, you know, the stuff you usually do.
Anyway, i've been reading around the forum and i've found other people are having this problem too, " Getting the bluescreen " Now i was wondering if their any fixes that could make the game work, Any help would be useful and much appreciated!
The main reason I joined is because my windows 7 has a serious clicking problem. I drew the line when I tried to open "advanced network sharing settings" from the control panel. I clicked and clicked but it wouldn't open. This same problem occurs with lots of other functions with the control panel and the OS in general. I am an administrator and I can assure you it is NOT a hardware problem.
I am running on Windows 7 64bit home premium. My computer has been really weird lately. I have tried recovering my computer to an earlier time but it constantly failed. Explorer.exe will fail on me, and I have tried the src thing using run but it will open and immediately close on me. I didn't have a recovery disk so I just recently bought one. I "think" I made the recovery disk correctly. When I put the cd in, I got an error that the file winload.exe with the error code 0xc0000001 saying the file may be missing or may be corrupt.
When a user in the domain tries to login, the error is "You cannot log on because the logon method you are using is not allowed on this computer". Many users would not have saved their work. Is there any possible way to make the user login without changing the group policy.
The cable is only giving me a resolution of 1680x1050 and it is ghosting they are also only giving off a generic monitor rather then recognizing the model of the monitor. The standard VGA cables you receive when you buy work fine. Doing research I've read that the longer the cable the lower the quality? The graphic cards are lower end AMD cards but are new. All drivers on graphic cards and monitors have been updated to the latest yet it hasn't had any effect.
I have a HTPC which includes an ASUS mobo/cpu combo (fanless, smart BIOS, etc). The case is mini ITX with a single case fan. As it is this machine runs really cool since I have no moving parts other than the storage HDD (OS is on SDD).What I ended up doing was move the case fan power plug to the "Chassis1" fan header on the mobo because the BIOS offers more tunability controls for chassis fans than it does the "CPU" fan header.Problem is now, I get popup alerts in my sys tray from the BIOS manager that CPU FAN IS DISABLED or NOT OPERATING.Is there a way I can jumper this power header out with a resistor or something to fake the mobo into thinking it's driving a fan?
My computer has been giving me 4 different blue screens, seemingly in random order. The most common one is BAD_POOL_CALLER, but I have also gotten IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL and most recently PFN_LIST_CORRUPT.
Recently I wanted to check out WinXP. I installed it and it ran pretty good. But Since I use Dx 10 for some of my gaming I decided Re-install 7. When I returned to 7 I noticed WEI giving me a lower score then what I used to have. I used to have a 4.2 Aero / 5.4 Gaming graphics. Now its showing at best a 3.8 Aero / 5.3 Gaming graphics score. I say at best because first going into Windows after the re-install it showed 3.7 Aero / 5.2 Gaming. And at the 2nd day in use 3.8 Aero / 5.3 Gaming. I did everything normal as always, installed DX update, Java, Flash, Visual C+. So maybe it just needs time to improve itself or maybe I'm missing something I don't know. The Graphics Driver is up to date and is setup as it always was when I had the high score. I know Windows 7 Improves Performance over time with superfetch so I'll continue to monitor it.
I purchased a SBT-SP6C which is on Microsoft's Windows 7 acceptable hardware list. I've installed it and downloaded the Windows 7 drivers fromthe Sabrent website. The device shows up in my system, but I get no sound. I know my speakers work because I hooked them up to an external source. I can hear some feedback when I unplug the jack.
i mistakely deleted all the java files instead of uninstalling the java. Now when i m tryin to uninstall java, its giving this 1723 error. Does any know how to fix this
A Dell Inspiron 1545. She is trying to boot it up and she's only getting a screen telling her to press Ctrl+Alt+Del to recover. But instead of recovering, the computer boots up again and then she gets the same screen.Is there anything she can do to fix this? Or does she just have to get a new hard drive?
