• XP computer does not access the Vista computer on the home network.

  I have a three home computers I'm trying to set up using two with XP - Pro (all updates including SP3 installed) and a third with Vista Home Premium (SP2 installed, all the updates that are installed to date). The two XP machines can connect (access) between them, but they cannot access the Vista machine. The Vista Machine can access the two XP machines. I've tried every tip/trick that I can find so far and nothing. Ping on each pc test, uninstalled the Norton firewall, permisions changed part to the best of my knowledge on all PCs, I am the owner of the computer and to assume with a single account on Vista I have right to full ownership, contacted the manufacturer of routers (performed an upgrade), but nothing is allowing access to the Visat pc.  When you view the network connections on the XP machines, Vista is listed, I can click to open and see the folders to share, but when I try to open a file I get the error\\xxx\xx is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact. admin of this server to find out if you have access permissions. Access is denied.

  It's funny that I can find other users to comment on other forums that they are experincing the opposite scenrio with access denied on XP machines... Thanks in advance for any help...

  Hello

  Uninstall any software antivirus and then check to see if you can access the Vista computer again.

  Warning: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software.
  If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

• Cannot activate the Vista computer.

  Original title: a worker injured several human rights violated; can not get the activation of Vista SP2... are there others in a similar situation? Help?

  R.A.

  July 7, 2014

  For all those who have the ability to help:

  first: vista dell licensed (1420 Inpiron laptop was invaded changed password and now NOT usable).

  Next: friend graciously made donation to the worker injured a HP Pavilion desktop computer.

  Third: injured worker does NOT receive the commercial companies involved buy analgesic, nothing else, resulting in the need to beg for all the living expenses of family and friends;

  Finally: the injured worker has spent two full days on the phone to get an activation code for Windows Vista to use it on the HP because the Dell is "broken".  Dell would not give same registration for each call numbers, but he said that it should NOT be a problem if the software is used on only one computer and nothing else.  This is true.

  Microsoft says Vista software is licensed to Dell, talk to Dell, again without registration number given by Microsoft for every forwarded call looking for a usable activation.

  Due to the urgent need for activation of vista on HP is the injured worker needs recognition and has great difficulty in using the Microsoft speech recognition and more than 15 years back was able to buy the Dragon Speech Pro 10, without money to upgrade, is desperately request passion to give the activation of the HP computer.

  Legal history of Dell is horrible and shows no compassion for all human rights and Microsoft 'pass the ball '.  This commercial practice does not and should not accept this treatment as a society.

  This business practice is the standard used by all commercial businesses.

  I need you to help change this current trend!

  R.A.

  You cannot use an activation code from Dell on a HP computer.  It is against the rules of license and illegal in most jurisdictions to work around.

  If your HP needs a code or an operating system, you need to talk to HP. They are the ones which were built.  Dell of course will not help you on another computer.

  Be an injured worker does not change the situation, I'm afraid.

• When I put my Vista laptop to sleep (or hybrid sleep), it turns off the hard disk completely?

  The reason why I ask, is that if the hard drive is completely off then I'd feel sure put my laptop in its case and then walk with it (possibility of jerking around as if he were completely off), but if the hard disk is still spinning and then I don't want to treat it as if the computer is running.

  essentially, this question is not whether my information is stored in memory or on the hard drive, what power I am saving, etc..  I just want to know, standby or hybrid sleep in windows vista on a portable computer, the hard drive always turns?

  The hard drive (and monitor) turn off during the sleep or hibernation mode.  The only thing is that some things can take the system into "sleep" or hibernation mode (some connectios network can do if configured to do so) how the hard drive and maybe the monitor turns on.  If you pay attention to set up your power options and network options, this should not be a problem for you.  Here's a great article on the problems of Power Options and Sleep Mode so that you can check to make sure that you have none of the problems listed and can be corrected if you: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/63567-power-options-sleep-mode-problems.html.  I suggest you carefully read this article if you intend to be rude with your laptop, because you consider the closed disc.

  I hope this helps.

  Hello

  No saving necessary data and re-installing Windows Vista might be the best option, but here
  are a few others.

  You can save your files by putting the drive in another computer as a 2nd disk (best) or external
  Drive USB enclosure and then backup to removable media such as CD, DVD or other USB drives.
  Of course a real store of the computer or the manufacturer of your system can help to recover the files.

  Or you can use a boot Ubuntu CD to back up data.

  Use Ubuntu Live CD to backup files from your Windows computer dead
  http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/use-Ubuntu-Live-CD-to-backup-files-from-your-dead-Windows-computer

  --------------------------------------------------------------

  You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel - device
  Manager - graphics card - Double click on - driver tab - click on UPDATE driver - then right click
  on devices and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.

  A method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure) is CTRL +.
  ALT + DELETE - Manager tasks and tab process EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - and then
  on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is available by
  repeatedly tapping F8 as you start. CTRL + SHIFT + ESC also begins the Task Manager.

• Backup of the Vista computer error

  Windows complete PC Backup 64 Business impossible.  The disk error 0 x 800 80005 stops the backup every time.  Regular file backup works fine and the timeline for the 500 GB ESATA drive.  I made the suggested registry checks and disk maintenance tasks.  Nothing has changed the appearance of the error.

  I want to make a backup of the computer, because Vista start not right.  It starts slowly.  After about 20 minutes, he finished his commissioning and works very well.  Also, event viewer said always the registration Service is not started and does not work. My motherboard is the ASUS P5N-E SLI with 8 MB of RAM.

  Hello

  ·          What is the exact error message/code you get while taking backup?

  ·          Are you trying to backup a drive hard or CD/DVD?

  ·          For how long is your computer running slow? You did it changes on your computer before this problem?

  This problem may occur if you close the backup progress dialog box before the end of the backup.

  You can try taking the backup and do not close the backup progress dialog box after the insertion of CD/DVD discs or after connecting the hard drive.

  To improve the performance of the computer, perform the clean boot and check if the computer is working properly. Clean boot will start Windows Vista by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs and eliminate software conflicts.

  The following link has steps showing how to perform the clean boot: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135

  (1) perform the clean boot (check the link to perform the clean boot).

  (2) enable half the services.

  (3) determine if the problem comes back.

  (4) enable half of the startup items.

  (5) determine if the problem comes back.

  (6) repeat the steps above until you find out which program or service is causing the issue

  Note: Please make sure that the computer is configured to start as usual according to step 7 of the article: how to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135.

• Xbox 360 and Windows Media Center interfere with the operation of the Vista computer.

  Since the implementation of an Xbox 360 for the family to use, turning power switch and return to the dashboard caused Windows Media Center on the laptop family to turn on automatically, which, in some cases, interrupts programs and blocks computer. Sometimes the computer will be same turns on automatically when the XBox is turned on.

  I've done everything I can think of to stop the problem, including 'disconnect' XBox WMC in the "Uninstall" the XBox and the XBox settings in the settings of WMC. I do not anticipate using WMC in the near future, I just want to stop this crazy to happen.

  Thanks in advance for any help and please ask if you need more information on my problem.

  Hello ebduhamel,

  1. what type of connection you have between the computer and the Xbox, it's a cable or a wireless connection?

  2. is it to wake up the computer from standby or everything just stops?

  I suggest you try the steps below and check if you have the same problem.

  This could be possible only if media sharing is enabled on your computer.

  I suggest that you turn off media sharing and make sure you always have the same question:

  a. click the arrow below the Library tab, and then click media sharing.

  b. turn off media to find that others share and share my media to check boxes, and then click OK.

  By clicking OK, you confirm that you want to turn off sharing for yourself. You will also be asked if you want to turn off sharing for everyone who uses this computer. Note that if you let one of the selected check boxes, some sharing services may continue to run in the background.

  c. When you are prompted to turn off sharing for everyone who uses the computer, follow these steps:

  To make your changes apply to all users of your computer (including yourself), click Yes.

• Files on a share network stuck as 'read only' to put the computer to sleep.

  By necessity, I use my 98 computer windows that the file server since tempting to access any shares of Vista will cause Windows 9 X to crash. It is already used as a print from the Vista computer server does not have a parallel port.

  I worked on a Microsoft Word document and subject to frequent interruptions. When I put the computer to sleep before walking away from the keyboard, it isn't properly disconnect the Win98 system. Wake up to the computer, I am unable to save office documents, because they are locked for editing.

  In addition, sometimes even after I close Word or Excel, the system is not disconnected. Even when I stopped all other computers, the Win98 system reports that there are still users connected to the system when I go to stop him so. Is it possible to force the Vista computer to disconnect all network connections before you put it to sleep or stopping then the Win98 system recognizes that no one is online and that all the files will be closed?

  I really don't want to have to close a document that I am in the middle of working on when I have to walk away from the keyboard, but this seems the only solution to the problem. Leaving open is the main reason that I put the computer to sleep rather than stop it. Recording locally is not really a good option because I want files stored in one place, and Vista Home Premium does not support synchronized folders.

  Any suggestions? I already use the Briefcase feature to save documents on a flash drive, do I have to use the drive in question and transfer it to the server through network disks? This seems to beat the goal of a network.

  The affected systems are Windows 98 Second edition and Windows Vista 64 bit Home Premium =.

  Hello

  Win 98 is a former client OS, server to call (or any other OS cleint) is nice, but this does not mean that they can be found on a peer-to-peer network and behave like a real server.

  Under this situation (using Win 98 for a server) it is not advisable to change the files over the network. First copy them to the Vista Edit computer and then synchronize. Return using one of the many free synchronization applications that work on most of the windows releases.

  Example, http://www.snapfiles.com/reviews/Allway_Sync/allwaysync.html

  There is no judgment of network functionality, if the Application is enabled and go to sleep while a file is open on Win 98 it will stay open. Closing the file needs to be done by the application.

Even though I disabled the program (Firewall/AV) I looked again in the application and noticed that garbage online backup, they've added was technically on but set to "manual". After you completely disable the full online backup feature, I did another test of speed through my ISP and got 39.7Mbps!
