Can I set up a network with a WinMe computer?

Hello. It is possible to set up a network between a WinME computer using Win Vista or Win7?

There are two laptops that have the latest OS (Home Premium versions).

WinME computer has just a modem 56 k inside. Laptops have phone ports (I forgot the name).

Does anyone do this? Y at - it any installation or troubleshooting, I might have to do? do I need a cable/ethernet instead of phone ports ports?

I don't want to scan the HARD drive on WinME computer for malicious software and be able to download a programme of protection for her with updates. I saw a few on cnet.com.

If there is any advice that I might have, I appriciate it.

WinMe has a Council of Gigabyte GA - 7ZM Rev 2.2. Mobo IDE. PCI expansion slots.

The short answer is - maybe.

I added a network adapter on a WinMe PC a few years ago so I could connect to a WinXP PC.  While it was a success, if I consider this now I sit and the purpose for which I use the network and then evaluate the alternative way to do the job from the list.  If you simply want to add in its storage capacity [as a backup location, just for example] then buy a USB would be cheaper, faster, less complex, more reliable, more flexible & infinitely safer.  I can't imagine what task I would now use the WinMe for that would justify the aggravation & costs of putting in place a network.  My old WinMe PC is now collecting dust, but if it has a residual interest as a storage device [though relatively very slow], I bought a hard drive for its internal drive enclosure.

A couple of updates first:

1 the WinMe machine will be a gaping hole in your security.  Because it is not updated for the modern vulnerabilities, you will need to consider as a risk and have never connected it while all other machines are connected to a network such as the internet.  This will remain true regardless of the modern antivirus / anti-malware applications you put on it.  You need to physically remove the head whenever you connect modern laptops.

2 you will need to spend money & time to know if it works or not - there is no certainty of success.

Well, this is what you need to do: -.

1 check the "phone ports" on modern laptops.  They are actually a little bigger than the phone taken?  I think they are rather taken LAN cable.  If not then you need to buy a network card that fits into any card slots have spare.  If you are not sure, then get a LAN cable & see if it fits correctly or not.

2. check the WinMe PC.  Is there a spare PC card slot?  It would be a slot that is 2.1 inches [5.4 cm] wide.  You will need to buy a network card for this PC and this was the only type of housing that I could get a network card for.

3 I bought a Belkin CardBus network card F5D5010.  You will need to check that its modern equivalent has drivers for WinMe as this is not guaranteed.  I found that the Belkin instructions are very good and that the parameters of the proposed system worked correctly.

4 unless you don't want to connect the WinMe for a computer laptop modern at once, you need to buy & set up a router.  You should also check that it can work with a WinMe PC.  The router must be able to manage all the settings of the system you need, but you certainly need to compare his instructions with the WinMe instructions provided by the network card that you may have to combine the two to get a positive result.

5. If you want to only connect the WinMe to laptop modern both & you really are determined to move forward, then carry out a procedure step by step for the creation of a network of Ethernet cable of two computers between Windows 7 and Windows XP with ICS but change the proceedings with what you learn directions of the network card.  When I wrote this procedure to connect a Win7 for a Windows XP, I crushed my old notes for WinXP WinMe network and all I remember off the top of my head it's WinMe settings were practically the same, but I had to look in different places for them.

Finally, once more, the short answer is - maybe.

  • Trying to set up a network with windows 7 Home premium

    I'm trying to set up a network on windows 7 Home premium, but could not find this secpol.msc. I read the posts on the guy with vista home premium and similar problems. I tried the advice given to him:

    Open regedit and locate the key:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contrl\Lsa\LmCompatibilityLevel

    Set this value to 1 (is default on 3) "send LM and NTLM".
    See the Q823659 knowledge base 

    I got in the case of the LSA and found no LmCompatibiltyLevel, he was not in the file or it contained a folder with that name.

    I also read a post from someone about windows 7 as follows:

    On Windows 7 Home Premium, secpol.msc or this registry key is set.

    However if you add a new key named LmCompatibilityLevel DWORD value at the specified location and the value of '1' it seems to work to allow
    "Use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated".

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\LmCompatibilityLevel

    But my problem I do not know what he meant by 'DWORD '.
    If someone could help with this problem, it would be great.

  • Unable to connect to a wireless network with Windows 7 computer laptop.

    After resetting my router netgear wireless home network, I have not been able to access my own network with my laptop. I already had access to the internet with a wireless ethernet cable and ankles bound to the router. After reset the netgear router, I was able to access the internet from two other laptops XP and an Acer mini wireless with no problems at all. But my new laptop Toshiba with Windows 7 could not connect, even if he could detect the network. I tried all day even resort to the ethernet socket and wireless cable, but even that would no longer work. I was able to connect using this same cable attached.

    Hello

    Seems that the Wireless does not work on the Dell.

    This is the process to try to find what wrong with it.

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

    Assuming that wireless router is configured correctly, it is a signal and the wireless card on the computer is physically in.

    Maybe this can help.

    These steps and tell us where is the breaking point.

    Check the Device Manager for the wireless card valid entry.

    http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/net_dm.jpg

    If there is no valid entry, remove any entry from fake and re - install the drivers for the wireless card.

    Check network connections to make sure that you have a network icon/entry wireless connection, and that the properties of the icon (right-click on the icon) are correctly configured with the TCP/IPv4 protocol in the properties of network connections.

    http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/net_connection_tcp.jpg

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

    The wireless card drivers much also install utility wireless of the seller.

    To ensure that if there is Wireless Utility a seller is not running with the native Windows wireless utility (Service WLAN).

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

    Make sure you firewall No. preventing / blocks wireless components to join the network.

    Some 3rd AV/Firewall/security software part, s costume keep blocking aspects of Local traffic even it they are off (disabled).

    If possible set up the firewall correctly, /Security costume otherwise totally uninstall and get rid of its remaining processes that permit the own local network traffic flow.

    If the 3rd party software is uninstalled, or disables, make sure Windows native firewall is active .

    party like Hello and NetMagic 3rd network managers can block local traffic too.

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

    Stack TCP/IP work should look like.

    Right-click on the wireless network connection card, select status, details and see if she got an IP address and the rest of the settings.

    http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/status-NIC.jpg

    Description is the data of the card making.

    The physical address is MAC of the card number.

    The xx must be a number between 0 and 255 (all xx even number).

    YY should be between 0 and 255

    ZZ should be between 0 and 255 (zz all the same number.)

    The date of the lease must be valid at the present time.

    * Note 1. IP that starts with 169.xxx.xxx.xxx isn't valid functional IP.

    * Note 2. There could be an IPv6 entries too. However, they are not functional for Internet or LAN traffic. They are necessary for Win 7 homegroup special configuration.

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

    A message in the small window that says connected wireless doesn't means that you are really a valid functional connection.

    Above everything is OK, you must be able to connect to the router.

    Connection to the router means that you can enter the IP of the router base in an address bar in one go, being able to connect and configure the router menus see.

    If it doesn't connect to the router, journal newspaper from any computer that can connect to the router wirelessly with a wire, disable wireless security, make sure that the wireless SSID broadcast is enabled and try to connect with no. wireless security.

    Enable security wireless after you eat to make a functional connection.

    I sold my computer and don't think much about music on my phone. Well, I had to replace my phone, and I noticed that more than 500 songs, that I had on my music had disappeared.  So I used the computer of my father who has installed iTune.  I thought when I signed with my user ID and password, I could access my music library.  Well, I found out that none of my songs are in the library.  It was my fathers library, even after I connect with my id/password.

    How can I get all my music on the library with the help of someone's computer?

    can multiple people can have their own library on a computer?

    Thank you.

    See download your past - purchases of Apple Support. You can download purchases of multiple accounts on the same computer, but you can create your own separate library on a portable player. See Open a different iTunes library file or create a new one - Apple Support.

  • How can I set Up Airport Express with an existing router/modem from the ISP

    I have a wireless modem/router ISP and I want to get the ability to use Air Print using a non-Airprint but the USB printer. I suggest you to connect the printer to the Airport Express A1392 Epson) via a USB port to enable the AirPrint features.  However, I guess the Airport Express must be an ethernet to the modem/router ISP connection and then use the Epxress airport more convenient than my wireless router.

    Issues related to the:

    1. do I need to turn off the function the ISP router's wireless when I plugged as stated above? So I wait.

    2. as the Airport Express only has one ethernet port I assume that I can connect my other ethernet connections using a hub 4 ports connected to the Airport Express Terminal.  It will be always possible to use other ports ethernet on the modem/router ISP as well?

    Doug

    I have a wireless modem/router ISP and I want to get the ability to use Air Print using a non-Airprint but the USB printer.

    You may have received incorrect information, because a non-AirPrint on the USB port on an AirPort Express Terminal... or any other router from Apple also printer... do not make the AirPrint-compatible printer.

    You want to continue nevertheless to check that this is true?

    The AirPort Express can connect to the network wireless router using a wireless connection... or... it can connect to one of the router's Ethernet ports using a wired Ethernet connection.

    Wired connections are always preferable wireless if possible for your Express.  Turn off the wireless router is not necessary if you want to connect to the Express using an Ethernet connection.
