Permission For Fileshare On Network To Win98
Jul 20, 2006
a lack of permission for filesharing/or computer sharing from XP laptop:Maybe it is simple but I have spent many hours trying uselessly.I am new to XP and have searched everywhere I can try - (tho' as these are French versions, maybe I am missing something obvious. so in replies, please be extra clear in stating exactly what steps I must take.
1) Networked 2 laptops: a win98SE and winXP Home Edition +SP2, using TCP/IP
2) Both have filesharing enabled,etc, both 'ping' to router and to each other
3) the XP can open, read, write, etc to the win98 - no access problems at all.
4) the win98 can ping and 'see' the named XP computer itself, but cannot 'see' any of its files:
5) Not a firewall problem: tried with firewalls off (Zonealarm) and checked winXP firewall off.
6) Not a router problem: Same situation as above with a direct connection of crossover cable.
7) Netbios is enabled on the XP
8) It is apparently 'just' a permission problem within the XP

I was trying to get 2 PC's to be able to see each other in the network, and while modifying permissions I must have accidentally done something, now I (Administrator account) can't install anything cause I get the "you do not have permission" message.

I'm trying to upgrade operating systems and I'm getting the message "Incompatible Hard Disk Controller. Setup does not have a driver for a hard disk controller. To continue setup, you need the correct Windows 2000 compatible driver disk." The problem seems to be with my Intel 82371AB/EB IDE controller. Does anyone know if a Windows 2000 driver exists for this and, if, so, where I can get it? Iv'e scoured the Web to no avail.

HP Pavillion 8485Z.I've tried a couple of different things here.When upgrading from a plain disk (no OS) or when booting from the XP upgrade CD (with or without OS). The application loads some stuff and then proclaims "Setup is starting windows" and there it sits forever.When launching it from the system with Win98 installed, it tells me that the CD is for upgrade only (in spite of what the written instructions say) and that it can't install because it can't find C:WindowsWINNT32Win9xUPGW95UPG.DLL. Never mind that Win98 doesn't have a WINNT directory.So what's the next step? Do I create this directory and attempt to find the DLL and copy it to it?

Trying to install XP Pro and I need to fdisk. Should I use a Win98 or 98se boot disk does it matter? I know I can use the CD to do it all but lets say I wasn't and wanted to clean up the hard disk from a fresh perspective would it matter which version of boot disk I used?

Recently I tried to open up Photoshop CS2 like I do all the time, and it said I do not have permission to access this program.I am the only one who uses my computer, with no guest accounts active.I also noticed I can't even select to shut down computer from the Start button. I have to log out first, and then shut down from there.I did a virus sweep and found 3 Trojans, which have now been deleted. I also created another User account as an administrator, but I still get permission problems.

First, I still have problem to set a folder to be private. It should be a VERY EAY task.But when I right click the Property of a folder on D: drive its "Make this private" check box is gray out.So I can NOT make a folder be private in D: drive.
It seem to me the private folders are private under "My Documents" in C: drive.
I read from Help, it says a drive MUST be NTFS
But I type
convert D: /fs:ntfs
It says my D drive already is NTFS format.
Since it already in NTFS, then why I can't
make it private?

I was told I could take a hard drive from a windows 98 computer and the person is buying a new Windows xp so I can hook up the win 98 hard drive as a slave to the new computer with win xp so I can drop and drag or cut and past files that they want off the 98 hard drive put on their new computer. Now If their new computer with the win xp on it, if there is an ide cable going to the hard drive and nothing else then I can hook up the win 98 hard drive to the same ide cable as a slave and no problem.
However if the windows xp computer has the hard drive on the ide cable and also the cd-rom then is it ok just to hook up another ide cable to their mother board and hook the hard drive from the windows 98 computer on the end of that ide cable as the master? and by turning the computer off, and then hooking up the hard drive and then turning the computer back on it should reconize the windows 98 hard drive in my computer right away right?
If I would have to put the windows 98 hard drive in the new computer on a seperate ide cable is it ok to have it as master? cause the hard drive that is already in it would be master to but it would be on a different ide cable. I am hoping the new computer just has the hard drive on an ide cable by itself so I can just hook the other one up as a slave and get the files and be done with it. How ever if someone could give me a couple or three scenario's with ide cables and hooking this up I would be very much appreciatetive.

(1) When I start up my computer, I get a menu asking me to choose from either (a) Continuing to install XP or (b) Use 98. I don't want this menu, I just want to go straight to 98.
(2) When I choose the option to go to Windows 98, I get another menu (every time!) telling me to choose between NORMAL or SAFE MODE or a bunch of other options. I just always want to go into Windows 98 using NORMAL, I don't want to have to choose NORMAL every time.
(3) Once I get into Windows 98, I cannot shut it down without holding down the power button on the computer. If I choose the Shut Down option, it just restarts the computer. If I choose Restart it also restarts the computer. I can choose Standby and it will go into Standby mode, but I want to be able to shut down my computer.
(4) Internet Explorer is not displaying websites correctly. In addition other windows on the computer look funny. For example, all of the text on Yahoo's website looks too large, even though I set the text size to "Smallest". Also, if I open up any folder, the icons are all overlapping.

Win 98 / SE has a ScanReg.exe application, which on start-up picks up the 2 Registery files (System.Dat, User.Dat) plus 2 ini files (System.ini and Win.in) and compresses trhem as *.cab file - RBxxx.cab. The files are stored at WindowsSysBckUp folder. In case of improper shut-down or some just installed program cause problem, one can boot with F8 to command propmt and RESTORE the registery. Is there a similar functionality in Win XP - Professional or if not, any 3rd party software developer has created a software for that. Restore from Windows mode generally does not work and in case the registery is totally messed up, one does not have the running system, so the question of restoring the system, using SYSTEM RESTORE application does not arise.

I was wondering if it is possible to make a specific user (such as Guest) and change it's user permissions. For instance, right now, Guest can do the usual stuff but not access any folders other than its own My Documents. What I want to do is configure it so it is not able to use certain applications, click properties for the desktop, etc

I have a network of 20 computers with three workgroups. One workgroup (three computers) would like to have shared folers within the workgroup that are NOT
available to Everyone outside their workgroup but on the network. All 20 computers are on windows XP I went and unchecked simple file sharing so I can have the permission tab available. However I am having hard time finding the othertwo computers in the workgroup so I can grant them full access permsission. I assume I need to remove 'everyone' and add the other two computers in the work group and grant them full permission.

I got a hard drive out of a computer running windows XP home (this computer was not booting in to windows), so I put the hard drive in a caddy and plugged it via USB in to another system so I can get photos, etc, off the hard drive before doing a reinstall of windows. I can look at the files on the HDD I have in the caddy but I do no have permission to open or copy/paste these photos or any other files under the user account I was using as I had a password on this account

I used "drag & drop" to move some of my documents to a cd rw disk on my D drive. It all transferred well, however, when I open the files and edit them it does not allow me to "save as" on that same cd on the D drive and says, "You do not have permission to save in this directory. See the administrator to obtain permission. Would you like to save in the My Documents folder instead?" So it wants me to save what I have on the D Drive CD RW disk back to my C drive on my cpu.This is my computer, I am the administrator and have full permissions so I do not understand why I can't edit and save my own cd's.

after disabling windows automatic update, an alert show "sysocmgr.exe" asking permission to operate. I deny it. This is the first time I have ever had this alert. Is this an important session that I should allowed to run?
I am running windows xp home edition. The reason why I disable windows automatic update, because I did not want to install the latest update from windows.

I have a gateway 6520 gz laptop with IE6 and XPHE, I 'm on a network with two computers and use NETWORK MAGIC for the network, when I turn the laptop on it wants to display {the page cannot be displayed} instead of going online! Then NETWORK MAGIC pops-up and says {YOU ARE NOW CONNECTED} then I have to manually turn on IE6 button to go online, almost like the page {the page cannot be displayed} wants to come up first instead of the connection?

I need to have network drive on my Windows XP computer. In order for a software to work, there needs to exist a network drive, named N, existing on my PC. Since there's not a second PC to link to, what I did was to created a directory named est on the same PC , share it out, and then, map a network drive, named N, to it. When my PC has an Ethernet cable connected to a switch, Windows XP will see that N drive (existing on the same PC). The moment I disconnect that Ethernet cable from the switch, the N drive is gone. Is there a way to have a mapped network drive on XP (as mentioned above), without the need to have a network cable connecting that PC to a switch?
