Two Network Cards In Windows 7 Networking To Windows XP
Jul 12, 2011
I am currently having a problem that has been troubling me for a long time, I've looked all over the internet and I still haven't found a solution. My problem is that my XP network cannot access my Win7 server, but its not the same problem that has so many solutions around on the internet.Here is my situation:I have 2 networks in my office.
-Network1 consists of 3 WinXP machines connected via Router1 to Modem1 to the internet.
-Network2 consists of 7 64-bit Windows7 machines connected via a Switch to Router2 to Modem2 and then to the internet.
I also have a server machine running Windows7 64bit with two network cards. One NIC is connected to Router1, the other connected to the Switch. All of the above machines are all under the same work group: WORKGROUP.My Windows7 machines on Network2 can interact fine with the server. However, my WinXP machines cannot access the server "most" of the time, I've had a rare few occasions where it magically worked.

i just bought a dell latitude D40 which has win 7 starter installed for the OS. i have 3 other pc's all networked (home network) together and all have win xp prof. i would like to network the the dell (win 7 starter) to the other 3 computers but after doing some research i find that one of the pc's on the network must have win 7 for an OS.just to be sure i'm understanding correctly, is this true ? I'm probably going to have to reformat and reinstall windows on one of the pc's on the network pretty soon. when i reinstall windows, could i install win 7 starter or would i need to install the full blown version(so that i can network the laptop to the other 3 already on the home network

Recently installed Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit. Everything works fine except my Belkin F5D5005 v2000 network card.
There are no drivers for it on the Belkin site and none of the older vista drivers work.
Is there a list somewhere of NIC's that are compatible with Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit since it looks like I'll need to buy a new one.
The on board network point on my motherboard works fine (realtek NIC on an Asus Fatality fp-in9 SLI mobo) but has been faulty for some time now.
Any advice?

I just finished a clean install of Windows 7 RC from Windows 7 7000 Beta. I have two network cards (not wireless) on two different routers. On XP PRO and Windows 7 Beta I was able to set up one connection as Home with Local and Internet and the other as Home or Work but without the Gateway configured to insure the first card is used for the Internet while the other is just access to the other network for gaming and file access.
I use static IP addresses so I can use DYNDNS service to get access remotely. Windows 7 RC has one network set to Home but as soon as I remove the gateway on the 2nd network (I want local access only) it goes to Public/Unidentified and won't allow any changes.
This then keeps me from accessing the other computers on the second home network. I've tried Bridging but I couldn't figure out how to create a static IP on the bridge to allow remote access. Plus it seemed others couldn't access my computer. It worked as described on the Beta but I noticed the Local and Local and Internet doesn't even show up.
If someone has a better idea to try I'd be grateful. I need two networks because my three teenagers eat up a lot of bandwidth. So I have two cards and two routers, one is on a 192.168.1.1 ip and the other 192.168.0.1.
Is there a way to force Windows 7 to make a connection a default like wireless? It seems to default to the internet connection my teenage are using no matter what I do.

I have a problem with a Windows 7 64 bits. After power on, the DHCP client tries to acquire an IP for all the network cards, even those that are not connected.I can see in the event logs that after 2 minutes from the startup, I get one message for each interfaceQuote: >Your computer was not assigned an address from the network (by the DHCP Server) for the Network Card with network address 0xMAC_ADDRESS. The following error occurred: 0x79. Your computer will continue to try and obtain an address on its own from the network address (DHCP) server." I have an Astaro VPN client that manifests itself as a network card and when I start it up (manually) it fails to receive an IP from the DHCP server. I believe it is related with this general DHCP problem because if I start it up within two minutes from power on (before I get the message in the event log), then it works.

I have an old HP Proliant PC that I upgraded to Windows 7 Professional. There are only two PCI-X slots (one half height and the other full height). This is not PCI-Express or plain PCI.i need to add a video card to support a higher resolution monitor. There is an ATI Radeon 9200 PCI-X card out there, but it is not supported with Windows 7. Since this card type is more than 10 years old and operating systems have moved on, I need to know where to find a new PCI-X graphics card (or used) that will support higher resolution. If a standard PCI card will fit in the slot, will it work and what is the down side.no drivers for Windows 7 with PCI-X.

I recently built a new machine that I have three monitors for. When I only had two monitors I had this card installed: Newegg.com - PNY XLR8 VCG98GTEE5XEB GeForce 9800 GT EE 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card - Desktop Graphics / Video Cards
This card works perfectly fine and I had no issues with it and I plan to continue using it. However, now that I have three monitors and I need another video card I'm running into a lot of issues. I tried installing another PCIe 16 card I had lying around but my setup didn't seem to recognize the new card. I do not have the exact model number on that since it was given to me, but I believe it was a GeForce 6 series card. I also tried a PCI ATI Radeon card that I had laying around found here Newegg.com - SAPPHIRE 100945L-BK Radeon 7000 64MB 64-bit DDR PCI Video Card - Desktop Graphics / Video Cards
This card showed up in the device manager as a Standard VGA adapater but in the properties it had an error saying "The device could not start".
So I guess my question is this: What is the cheapest way to get three monitors working on my windows 7 64 bit machine? I want to use the first card I linked to and one other one.
Would this card work? [URL] - PNY VCG84512SPEB GeForce 8400 GS 512MB 64-bit GDDR2 PCI Video Card - Desktop Graphics / Video Cards
Here is my motherboard in case that'll help: ASRock > Products > M3A780GXH/128M

Upgraded Dell XPS 710 (2006 build) from Windows XP to 7. Only issue is no sound from the Sound Blaster sound card. I've tried ALL trouble- shooting tips from Microsoft and Sound Blaster. I'm able to hear sound when I perform a sound test during SB's setup through all my 5.1 speakers. Otherwise just crackle or silence. Do I just need to break down and buy a new sound card?

i have a question. i am running a quad screen set-up. i have been running windows 7 32-bit. with 2 video cards1 pci-e ati radeon hd 4350 now it was working great in windows 7 32-bit, but ever since i upgraded to windows 7-64 bit. its not working at 100%now i have been reading alot on this forum that alot of people have trouble getting the fx 5200 working. after trying many different drivers i finally was able to get it working. the only catch is that. i had to turn off aero and disable other aero features so it can run with better performance.but even after doing that. the ony problem i have is that videos such as in Internet. run slow seem to lag a little and worse when i put it on full screen.i figure its the card because its so old and its a pci card

any computer running windows 7 but this new laptop i have (hp g6 core i5) seems to be continually corrupting memory cards out of my camera! when i first insert the memory card and view the pictures and go to change their orientation; windows comes up with a message saying it can't change it because the picture is no longer there! when you go back to view the folders on the card they appear as symbols as they have been corrupted! the first time it happened i downloaded (and purchased the key) for recovery which seems to do a good job of recovering the images. its really annoying me as to why it is happening! i'm now very careful and transfer images from the sd to the laptop straight away and safely remove the card afterwards. the laptop also corrupted a different memory card when the lid was shut and re-opened but im assuming this is because the computer was hibernating without the card being safely removed.has anybody else had this problem and if so how can it be sorted?

i am quite disappointed to see the lack of support for Microsoft's Virtual PC networking configurations. If there is anyone that can help me with this,I have Windows 7 Ultimate x64 as primary OS installed. I have also installed Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 (not Windows XP Mode). Inside this virtual machine, I have installed Windows XP Professional (x86). I need to have the Windows XP connect to Windows 7 via networking. According to most threads, I need to install Microsoft Loopback Adapter in Win 7 to be able to connect the VM to Win 7. I have configured the loopback adapter (on Win 7) to use IP 192.168.1.1, subnet 255.255.255.0, no default gateway and DNS server addresses. On the virtual machine, I have set the LAN connection to use IP 192.168.1.2, subnet 255.255.255.0, no default gateway and DNS server addresses. No connection.

Sorry but I'm sure this is now old hat. I've been networking PCs successfully since DOS 2 days but Windows 7 has me ****ed.
I have two PCs running XP and a BT router both work well but have just bought my wife an HP Netbook running Windows 7. I have set up the network 4 times but everytime I restart the Netbook all settings are lost, the shared printer and doc folders are not there and with the exception of a Windows Media folder on the XP desktop NOTHING is visible.
I suspect that it will take at least two hours to set it all up again but if anyone can give me a quick fix or tell me why it can't remember anything, or even the name of some network software that works, you'll be my friend for life!

I have 4 computers on my home network. Laptop runs Win 7 Pro; Storm runs Win 7 Ultimate; S-Mach runs Win7 Ultimate (64 bit); AMD64 runs Win 2K. All have the same login and password. Win 7 machines have network discovery turned on. All in the same workgroup.
Laptop sees all machines but can't access S-Mach. It can access all others.
S-Mach sees all machines and can access all drives and folders.
Storm see only Laptop and can access it. Network map shows S-Mach but it does not show up in Network.
AMD64 sees Laptop and can access it; nothing else.
All machines are set up for sharing with full control permission to Everyone.
When I try to access Storm from AMD64 I get the error, "Network path is not found"
Any suggestions?

I decided that I wanted this cheap dell laptop to run faster, so I used a tool to "strip down" my windows 7 32bit. It worked stupendously well. Everything seems two or three times as fast now as it was before.
BUT, I now have no wifi access. I confirmed that the wifi drivers are installed. They register as "working properly" but I am not finding ANY wifi signals. The problem is within the computer somewhere. Other computers in my home find 5 or 6 signals (as this one used to). The strip down tool also removed the network diagnostics feature of windows 7, so I am without recourse.
I am, however, able to connect to the internet through my iphone (pdanet) being directly connected to my laptop.

I'm looking for some assistance to the above problem I'm having with my desktop. I am unable to connect to the net through this PC, however, the net connection is working fine as I am currently connected wirelessly via my laptop. The icon on the tool bar has a red cross indicating that I'm not connected, when I click on the icon it tells me no connections are available. When I try to connect to the net via the PC through the control panel, a message pops up saying' Windows did not detect any networking hardware'. When I try and acces the basic information and set up connection page, a msg states 'The dependency service or group failed to start.

Can Windows 7 change the perception that Windows Firewall is security you use until you install protection that actually does something?
Like Rodney Dangerfield, Windows Firewall just don't get no respect. It didn't evolve appreciably in the transition from XP to Vista. It does its simple job well, but its lack of ambition makes it a punching bag for reviews of other, better personal firewalls. I can't tell you how many times I've written sentences along the lines of, "Sure, Product X stealths all your ports against hack attack, but heck, even Windows Firewall can do that." Good news: It looks as if Windows 7 will pull the firewall out of its slump. Some new features are visible and functional even in the pre-beta I've got running on my test system, and there's a tantalizing suggestion of more to come.
Hangin' with My HomeGroup
The firewall exists to protect your network, and Windows 7 starts by making it easier to configure that all-important home network. When users hit network problems, they curse the firewall—and they're often right to. Windows 7 addresses the problem by taking over home network setup and making sure the firewall doesn't interfere.

I was trying to overclock my computer using clockgen and then after I closed the program, I noticed that my Internet had a red x sign on it. I troubleshoot it and it said that Windows did not detect any networking hardware. I went to Device Manager and I saw a Unknown Device below Other devices. I check the Details of that Uknown device and it said *SysToolDevice. Yes, I tried SysTool this morning and it didn't work, so I decided to delete it.
