A hard time with the drivers for Vista Home Premium computer laptop computer network with Windows 7

OK, I've read tons of information on that and I'm stumped.  I have an Epson Stylus CX6600 all-in-one printer.  I have my Windows vista Home premium networking with my 64-bit Windows 7 computer.  I go to the step where the machine Vista attempts to connect to the printer on the network, then it asks a driver.  The driver file is already on the vista machine.  I installed the latest drivers from Microsoft and epson on the Windows 7 machine and he always asks a driver.  Can someone point me to the exact file name and the location of the driver in the vista vista machine so I can simply copy and point to it my windows machine 7.  I did the updates from Microsoft to get all the latest drivers.  Thank you.

You do not install the Vista drivers on Windows 7 computer.

  • PC Windows 7 and Vista Home Premium computer network cannot access each other

    I have an a Premimum Vista computer with a USB printer on a network with a Windows 7 Ultimate Computer.  Both recognize each other both are visible in the network on both computers) but I can not access one or the other.  Message on window 7 says "your computer seems to be correctly configured but the resource does not."
    "Any suggestions?  I need to produce and share printers.

    Here are the steps of general network troubleshooting. Just cannot apply to your situation, so just take the bits that are. It may seem daunting, but if you follow the steps in the links and suggestions below calmly and consistently, you will have no difficulty to implement your sharing.

    Problems sharing files between computers on a network are usually caused by 1) a misconfigured firewall or a firewall neglected (including a dynamic firewall in a virtual private network); or (2) inadvertently run two firewalls such as the firewall of Windows and a third-party firewall. and/or (3) do not have accounts to the same users and passwords on all computers in the workgroup. (4) tries to create actions where the operating system does not.

    Excellent, comprehensive, but easy to understand article on sharing files/printer under Vista. Contains information about sharing printers and files, and the folders:

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727037.aspx

    In Vista, turn on password protected sharing. In Windows 7, go to control panel > everything in Control Panel > network and sharing Center. Click on "change the advanced sharing settings. You don't want to use the residential group unless you have all Windows 7 machines. If you do and you want to use the homegroup, see Windows 7 Help & Support. Otherwise, in sharing advanced:

    Discovery of plug in the network
    Open the files and printers sharing
    Turn on the sharing section Public folder sharing
    Plug the password protected sharing

    A. configure the firewall on all machines to allow traffic to local area network (LAN) as being approved. With the Windows Firewall, turning on window file sharing and printer as the above will take care of that for you. If you are not running a third-party firewall or you have an antivirus/security with its own firewall component program, then you're fine.  With a third-party firewall, I usually set up the allocation of LAN with an IP address range. E.g. would be 192.168.1.0 - 192.168.1.254. Obviously you would substitute your correct subnet. Refer to the safety of any third party program or the user forums for how to correctly configure its firewall. Do not run more than one firewall. DON'T STOP FIREWALLS; CONFIGURE THEM CORRECTLY.

    (B) to facilitate the Organization, put all computers in the same workgroup. This is done from the System applet in Control Panel, the computer name tab.

    C. create the counterpart of the user accounts and passwords on all machines. You do not need to be logged into the same account on all machines and assigned to each user account passwords can be different; accounts/passwords just need to exist and to match on all machines. DO NOT NEGLECT TO CREATE PASSWORDS, EVEN IF ONLY OF SIMPLE. If you want a machine to boot directly to the desktop (a particular user account) for convenience, you can do this:

    Start > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
    Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

    Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).

    D. create shares as desired. In Windows 7/Vista I usually shares its office and the Public directory.

    E. After you have the job of file sharing (and tested by exchanging a file between machines), if you want to share a printer connected locally to one of your computers, share of this machine. Then go to the printer mftr Web site. and download the latest drivers for the correct system. Install them on the target machines. The printer must be collected during the installation procedure. If this isn't the case, install the drivers and then use the Add Printer Wizard. In some cases, printers must be installed as local printers, but that is beyond the scope of this answer.

  • How can I get the fix for Vista Home Premium described in kb313222 reset the default security to be permanent? Reboot made my sharing failure once again.

    I ran the command secedit / configure according to the kb313222, but I find I have to redo the command after that I reload.

    Also, as a side note, my standard connections have simply disabled, so all I had to do was to reactivate in user accounts.

    Hello Halima S,.

    Thanks for the replies and the direction that worked - somewhat.  I agree that the script is very nice, but I also saw that he really did exactly what I had done before.  However, as the source of the information and of the validity of the script I have very slow and tested every step this time before restarting and found that when I re-enabled the guest sharing connection stopped working.

    My hypothesis is that if the protection of password for sharing is enabled, then a connection without password fails the initial security checks and therefore do not allow all connections.

    The only thing that I forgot that "what has changed", is that we had a visitor, so I enabled the guest account, or I had the chronology wrong since between the two, I went to an open wifi and disabled sharing now so naturally I thought I was doing something irreversible.

    Thanks again,
    Tony

  • Vista Home Premium SP1 Reboot loop infinite, inaccessible Windows restore

    Problem: Update marked Service Pack 1 (I do not know the real KB #) sent my computer in an infinite loop.  After a reboot "3 3 0% complete configuration updates / don't turn off computer" appears and the percentage continues to 100%, the system reboots and repeat.  I left the computer to update last night and now he has been yet updated this morning.

    Is trying to solve: I studied what I can on this problem.  I tried to access the system restore via the following methods:

    1. Shut down the computer, restart the Advanced Boot Options screen boot mode safe.  Result: after the appearance of the logo windows at startup, the screen returns to the screen "Update Configuration".  This is the case on 'Safe Mode', 'Safe Mode with networking' 'Last good known Configuration (Advanced)' and "Directory Services Restore Mode" I have not tried other options in the screen options start
    2. Using the recovery DVDs I've done after the installation of Vista (circa Dec. 2006): result: restore option only includes the restoration of the recovery image of boot sector with a complete HD wipe factory-installed.  Not the restoration of the system of options available.

    Plug material: I have (obviously) Vista Home Premium installed above a factory installed Windows XP Media Center (SP2).  Partition 2 contains an area of recovery that will restore the original settings.  Another partition is Ubuntu, which is how I can log in and post this message.  Also:

    • Model: Compaq Presario SR2050NX Media Center
    • Processor: Intel Pentium D 2.8 GHz dual core
    • MoBo: ESC Asteropi 3
    • Chipset: ATI RC410
    • Southbridge: ATI SB400
    • Memory: 1024 M DDR2 - SDRAM (PC2-4200/PC2-4300/533 MHz)
    • HARD DRIVE: 250 GB
    • OS: Windows Vista editions Home Premium on XP Media Center SP2
    • Secondary to OS: Ubuntu 9.04

    Computing: Average

    Mood:
    upset

    My goal is to restore the system to a point before the installation of the update.  I didn't want to wipe the system and start over.

    Thank you
    TB

    Do a repair disc to do a repair system restore / boot:

    As is the case with most computers/laptops these days, they do not come with good Vista disc to repair only the recovery disks.

    As your grave in the category above, download the ISO on the link provided and make a bootdisk of it.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    You can make a tool to restart system, System Restore, etc. with it.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista repair disc.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    There is not a disk of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

    If this does not work, now looking to relocate, because you have only the factory recovery disc.

  • How to activate the faults COMMITTED to an internal SATA hard drive, but not the other, on Vista Home Premium 32-bit?

    I have a set of 17-inch laptop 2008 which contains two hard drive bays internal, purchased in June.  It came with a single hard drive (traditional spinning disc).  It is running Service Pack 2, Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit.

    My SATA controller is an Intel 82801GBM/GHM (ICH7-M family); I think it's a first-generation SATA controller (1.5 Gbps).

    I received recently a 160 GB Intel X - 25 M SSD (second generation SATA, but it is fully compatible with the first generation controllers, without additional or jumpers configuration) as a gift from my wife.  I removed my first hard drive completely, installed the SSD in the main Bay and installed Windows, drivers and the Intel SSD utility.  I then reinstalled my HDD original in the second span, completely wiped and reformatted it as a partition; It currently contains my music and other multimedia files.

    The utility Intel SSD tells me I should activate DIPM for my SSD as opposed to HIPM.  This seems to take a bit of tinkering to make Vista, and my situation is further complicated by the presence of my HARD drive (original) secondary, which prefer to use HIPM.

    I read the article on the Microsoft Web site on editing the registry to activate the misconduct, and it's something I would feel comfortable doing. However, I don't want my SSD to use DIPM, my HARD drive is expected to continue to use HIPM, and I was afraid that the proposed fix would allow the misconduct for all readers.

    Could someone let me know how I can activate DIPM for my SSD while continuing to use HIPM to my HARD drive, I'd be very grateful.

    EDIT: My Maintenance of SSD utility said simply that the State of the settings DIPM/HIPM "could not be determined." if Vista automatically selects the correct setting and the SSD utility does not just understand that, which makes my life a lot easier. but it would be nice to know for sure, so I can forget it all (if Vista already defined for me) or change the setting (if Vista did not automatically choose food appropriate for each disk management mode).

    You will need two SATA controllers: both on board or an edge and the other on PCI - E.

    Configure one who does not need TRIM/DIPM (do not use a SSD) as non-AHCI (compatible IDE/ATA-6) in the BIOS and the other (where TRIM/DIPM will be used) as AHCI.

    Connect the drive to which you DIPM AHCI controller. See http://www.abxzone.com/forums/f155/tip-how-enable-dipm-ssds-windows-120968.html for more information.
