HomeGroup Windows 7 - Library Showing Up On Network But Not Accessible
Feb 27, 2011Environment:
Desktop : Windows 7 Ultimate
Laptop1 : Windows 7 Home
Laptop2 : Windows 7 Ultimate
Laptop1 can view and access the libraries on the Desktop. Laptop2 can see the libraries on the Desktop but can not access the folders. I'm not sure what to do here, I've triple checked that libraries are shared on the Home Group.
Machines Not Visible Under Homegroup - Status Showing Joined Network
Mar 8, 2011Recently I discovered that the Homegroup feature is no longer working on my home network, which consists of one wired pc and one wireless laptop. Both machines running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 SP1. Both machines show the Homegroup status as "joined" in Network and Sharing Center, but neither machine is visible under "Homegroup" in My Computer. What I've tried (applies to both machines)...
- Disable Windows Firewall (no 3rd party firewalls installed)
- Leave Homegroup then rejoin
- Confirmed all needed services are running
- Confirmed IPv6 enabled
- Network Set to "Home"
- Disabled Wlan, using ethernet
Before this problem I had been using homegroup for over a year without incident. I should mention this problem seems to coincide with my upgrade to Service Pack 1, but I really don't want to jump to any conclusions at this point.

Jun 20, 2010I recently purchased a Gateway NV7921u and the first thing I did was install Win 7 Ultimate on it as this is what I have on my other PC's. For some reason, now the built-in webcam does not work, the multi-gesture touchpad only utilizes one finger, only half of the touch-sensitive keys work above the keyboard and, most importantly, I can ONLY get on the net WIRELESSLY. If I plug in an Ethernet cable and hardwire it I lose my connection entirely and it is driving me bonkers. Gateway says it is a driver issue so I click the link for say, the webcam driver or the WAN driver and download them (I also use a program called driver detective that does this for me
View 6 Replies View RelatedRAID1 Split Drives Cannot See Erased Hdd
Jun 26, 2012I'm running RAID1 with two 1tb drives. My RAID went critical and split the drives. One drive was listed as LD 2 -1. The other is listed as <single disk>. I was able to unplug either individually and boot into windows. I decided to erase one of them and planned to rebuid the array afterwards. At this point, I can see the erased HDD in BIOS and in RAID setup, but it will not boot to Window with the erased drive connected. It starts to boot into Windows, then gives a brief flash of BSOD, then reboots itself.

Aug 5, 2010I'll get right to it cause this is serious for me and I screwed up royaly. My original OS Windows 7 was on a normal hard drive and I installed a second copy of Windows 7 on a new SSD drive that I got and used it as my primary and left everything on the old one just didn't delete it. When the time came for me to finally say bye bye to all the previous items on the former drive since I was now using the SSD for OS and applications I formated using the Windows 7 startup disc. I cannot boot from the SSD nor does it even show in Device Manager (I'm gonna check the connections for that) This information is still recoverable I know but what's the best way to go about it. Will I be able to use the SSD to boot widows again if I repair this one thing? Can I at least get my files back somehow?

Apr 25, 2012I have been thinking about getting a SATA controler card and a few SSD for my system. I have been looking around for something on this topic and thus far have not found anything talking about it or it is talking about moveing the entire disk.What I want to do is migrate system directories to seperate drives, with the existing install. So it would look like this [code] That is what I want my table to look like, I want to know is it possible with out having to perform a reinstall. Also would I have to assign each drive a new drive letter or would I be able to do NTSF directory mounting after I migrate to the new drive?The way I was thinking about it was, if I added the drives to the system, with drive letters, make a copy of the directory contents, then remove the drive letter and set it up as a mounted directory to a NTSF drive, that may allow me to do it. Then I would have to figure out what to do with the old data to get it off.

View 3 Replies View RelatedAdding Directories To Path Failure?
May 1, 2011How do you actually add directories to path? Every tutorial I've come across just says tack the path on to the end of the PATH variable after the previous variable's semicolon. That doesn't work. For instance if I want to add a path B:MinGWin I would just add it to the system variable PATH like soand now anything in the bin directory of MinGW should be in the path. Why doesn't this work? It still pulling the "this is not an internal or external command" nonsense on me. I've also tried adding directories on the C drive to path and ended with the same results.

Oct 1, 2011got a new computer about a month ago and immediately installed Avast as anti-virus. Also have been using Peerblock. Haven't visited any sketchy websites or opened any suspicious e-mails/programs as far as I remember. Last night, I noticed my network icon in the bottom right showed a red "X" even though I am still able to use the internet. I then noticed I would get an error whenever I tried to click the icon to access my directories under explorer or access the control panel. The error message in each instance is "Windows cannot access the specified device path or file. You may not have the appropiate permission to access the item."I am the only user on the computer so am the Administrator. I have 2 Harddrives, both have Windows 7 64-bit installed, the primary being a solid-state drive, and the other being a conventional HD. I ran a full Avast check which didn't find much, just 1 sketchy mp3 I've had for a long time on one of my external HDs (I have 2 connected total) which didn't solve the problem. Also downloaded and ran Spybot S&D which found 2 things but correcting those didn't solve problem. I've rebooted several times and nothing has changed in terms of my access.Also, sometimes when I'm trying to install something it'll say that Windows Installer is messed up and I can't even seem to replace that via the files I tried to download off microsoft's website.I haven't tried booting from my conventional internal HD but I'm afraid that'll get corrupted too so I'm hesitant to yet.
