Connecting 2 Computers Online With Windows 7
Dec 18, 2011
i am trying connect my second computer from my host pc, there both running windows 7, there both connected to a wired Rj5 cable no router, now the thing is i don't want to be connected trough home group Ive found its to slow to transfer files and takes up more processes etc, all i want is the second computer to connect online from the host computer, and last with windows xp i had no problems connecting both machine but now since ive put windows 7 on both its been a nightmare to network them, to much for Microsoft making there newer os simple.

I have two PC's in the same room connected to the router and receiving good to excellent signal strength. One PC has no problem getting online while the other one can rarely get online. Or, if it does, it doesn't stay online. The problem computer is a Dell desktop using a wireless USB adapter. In the past, in different houses, it has never had a problem getting online. Windows 7 troubleshooting has not been successful.

I have an Eee PC and my main Desktop, both are running Windows 7 (same build.)
I want to be able to use a Homegroup, I really like the idea of it, but I want to be able to access my Desktop PC like it was in the homegroup even though I'm on another network (such as school.)
Would creating a Virtual Private Networking (via Himachi) allow me to create a homegroup between the two computers?
Any suggestions?

Wow I am so frustrated right now I cant remember the last time I was so frustrated! I have installed two fresh installations of 7264 x64 on two desktops. They are connected to a private network. I want to share the hard drives in both of them (say, C/: and D:/ )but I was running into all kinds of issues!!!
1) Tried connecting from one, got an error username and password but I changed the username and password many times only to have the same issue. Also it said username for pc1/user but I was trying to connect to pc2
2) after finally somehow getting access to the shares on pc1 and pc2 I mapped the drives, and upon restarting the computer I was unable to reconnect to the drives! Got odd errors, unable to reconnect. Also permission errors... ???
3) Even after it seemed to be working, I shared C: drive, but could not access it!!! No permission! I granted full access to everybody, but still nothing.
Why is it so impossible to do such an easy task in windows 7?
All i want is PC1 and PC2 should have their entire harddrives shared with each other... Is that too much to ask? The guy I was installing this for, is super mad that after all that time he doesn't have what he wants.

This is for my parents house. They have high-speed net that can only be registered to one computer, so running it to a router and then computers is not an option. We used to have it setup with net into "computer 1" then out to the wireless router. The new computer has only one ethernet port, so this can no longer be accomplished without buying another card, which I am very inclined to do. They are getting another computer that will also have Windows 7 and would like to get wireless working again, so...
1) I've tried an ad-hoc connection. I understand the concept and had it working for awhile but found it to be "finiky." I would always have to restart the connection everytime I wanted to use it. I couldn't get it to "stick." Did I maybe do something wrong or is there no way to keep the net connection open? I "saved" the network and set it to start automatically, but it would always close the internet sharing.
2) I haven't messed with home group...will this feature accomplish internet sharing easily??...without messing with any ad-hoc crap? I need everything as simple as possible, so if they have any problems I can fix it over the phone or they can figure everything out for themselves.
Like I said, worst comes to worst, I'll get them another ethernet and run it the old way...was just hoping I could simplify things and save some money.

Three Computers on a home network. Desktop in Office (Windows 7) . Wife's Laptop (Windows 7). My laptop ( Vista unfortunately). Norton Security Suite and all three. I have a network setup and a Homegroup established.
Everything was setup and working so that I could share files between all three. My wife was able to open a desktop file make changes and save it back to the desktop computer.
All of that changed. Now we get a message when trying to save the file. "You do not have permission to save in this location. Contact the administrator to obtain permission".
I have given the entire "MY Documents" sharing permission to everyone. I have checked everything. I have looked over all kinds of forums and nothing has worked.
I am to the point of doing a complete reinstall of Windows 7 on my Desktop.

So, my computer was acting really strange, and I decided I should just go ahead and buy a fresh copy of Windows 7.So after I purchased it, I wanted to download it online and get a fresh install, once I hit download 32 bit version and said to save it here and download it the only thing that I can tell something is downloading is on the browser page where the "download" button is now replaced with 2 spinning arrows... but thats it, no % done or ETA. Is there a way I can check to see if this is downloading and can I even do a fresh install via online downloading?

I have just backed up Windows to my new SSD and was amazed at how much space it gobbled. I don't currently have a HDD spare and am thinking about storing it online.
1.Can I do that?...
2.Where is the back up stored because the only files I have on that drive at the moment are the back up and it's gobbled 48GB's of SSD space and the only folders I can see on the drive amount to a grand total of 4KB?...
3.How do I do it
4.Is it safe?

We recently purchased a new Sony all-in-one desktop that came with Windows 7 premium. Is it possible to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional online, if yes, does windows 7 professional come with Windows Mail or equivalent (for email) that can be stored on the local harddrive?

The problem that I am having all started after I updated my Windows XP OS to Windows 7. When I start my computer up software is meant to start up a NAS drive that is on the network. This works fine but this software only starts the NAS drive after the computer is started and Windows 7 places it has offline. When the drive finishes startup should it not also display in Windows 7 that it is now online? This is what happened on my previous XP OS and it also works with another 2 machines that I have attached to the network which are XP and Windows Vista. how do you get Windows 7 to automatically check to see if the NAS drive is online or offline?

Just purchased a new laptop with Windows 7, it has 8gb memory i7 processor. This computer is brand new and any video I try to watch online, (You Tube, yahoo etc,) they are always going into buffering and videos keep stopping and starting. Are there any special settings to help this out. Also I can take my old laptop that has only 1gb of memory and an old processor and it does well, so I know it is not my internet connection or router?

I can�t get online. Icon in taskbar says I don�t have a network connection. Upon exploring, I find that Windows 7 Pro has me setup for a �public network��which has a yellow exclamation mark on the left side between my PC and the network, and a red X on the right side between the network and the Internet.
DETAILS:Dell desktop PC. Was running Windows 7 Home, now running Windows 7 Pro (full install; not upgrade). I had a malware problem (images on webpages and links, etc. were not visible to me) with W7Home; cleaned it and went to W7Pro. However, now I have this whole new and far worse problem with W7Pro. (See �problem� above.) NOTE: I am the only person in my house and the only person using the computer. So I never had it set up for a network. I only own the desktop PC and don�t need a network. The �network� that is now set up on my computer was set up by W7Pro by itself as part of the problem. My IP is not static so I can�t input my IP manually�it�s set to automatically detect. Called cable modem service provider; they made the assumption my operating system came with my PC and told me to call Dell for support. When I explained my OS didn�t come with the PC, they then said �You need to talk to Microsoft.� Uh---no. The cable modem service provider said their server is talking to my PC�my PC is unable to get to them. (Makes sense, as that matches the pictures I�m seeing with the exclamation mark and red X.)

I'm almost positive that once I completed an event on the Windows Live Mail Calendar on my desktop that it would update the calendar online. I just checked and it hasn't. I did reformat my pc in Oct. Is there something that I'm missing? I looked for "import" or something similiar online, but cannot find it.
