Cannot access my laptop from my desktop PC on the network

I have a desktop running Windows 7 and a laptop running Vista, and they are both on a wireless network. My laptop can access my desktop, but my office is unable to access my laptop. On the desktop, my laptop is visible, but clicking on it causes the following network error "Windows cannot access \\DR-NOTEBOOK.

Run the Diagnostics on the dialog box results in the following message: 'file and print sharing resources (DR-NOTEBOOK) is online but does not respond to connection attempts. I have gone through several web sites and support sites, but can't seem to find an answer ot fix the problem. I do not use any third-party firewall, only (on both PC) Windows Firewall.

In network and sharing on the laptop Center, I have all the elements (i.e. the network discovery, file sharing,...), put into service.

I would appreciate help from anyone. Thnak.s

I finally managed to fix the problem. The link above was helpful, but I had already taken care of everything mentioned. The link isn't really remedy the situation where you have a laptop that is connected wirelessly to the network, as is my case. My problem is that the desktop PC could not access files/folders on my laptop, but it worked very well the opposite effect (i.e. the laptop could access files/folders on the desktop. After 'playing well' on the laptop, that's what I did to solve my problem:

In Center of network & share on the laptop, there is a list with my network connection wireless, with a link "view state".

Click on this link and you get a dialog box with a button 'properties '. By clicking on this, you get one of several elements that may or may not be selected. In my case, the "file and printer sharing for Microsoft networks" was NOT selected. I chose this and hey presto, it worked.

Hope that this is useful for someone else with the same problem.

  • HP Officejet scan cannot be run, error "Scan cannot be performed because another program or computer uses the network device.

    Hello everyone,

    After you have installed Windows 8 on my desk, I lost the ability to scan with HP (Officejet 8500 pro wireless) solutions Center. Wen I click on scan (rather photo or document) I get a message: "Scan cannot be performed because another program or computer uses the network device. There is a little information on the HP site. I've tried all the suggested solutions, including several install and reinstall the HP software. The printing part works very well, and I can scan with other programs directly using the WIA driver. Now I scan documents to pdf authorizing searches, who wants me that this question be set quite often. Currently, I use my laptop for that. Everything works very well with Windows 7.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks, Johann

    I contacted HP about this specific problem.  They informed me that it is an upgrade of Windows 8 that Twain issue and they do not support this problem.  Reinstall the current drivers of hp does not help.

    My computer has virus of the FBI, I wiped it is clean but now it cannot connect to intermet because it can't find the network driver how can I find it?

    Since you have formatted the PC and reinstalled Windows, your question will be handled better in the hardware forum space and drivers for Windows 7, so I'll move it there.

    Apparently, you need to install the driver of your PC network. If you used the CD to restore the PC manufacturer that should have been included, but it may be on a 2nd CD with drivers and programs.

    If not, the first thing to do is contact the PC manufacturer to see if they have a driver available for download. If the PC has a wireless network card and wired, perhaps one has been configured, but not the other and you try to use the not yet detected and installed.

  • Cannot access BIOS laptop Aspire 7250

When I turn on the laptop it just see the Acer boot screen and then immediately switch to a black screen with white text saying "no boot device - insert boot disk and press any key any." At first I thought that the HD was defective, so I replaced with a new HD but still its giving the same problem. Not only can I not load/start windows but there is no option to access the BIOS (even I tried pressing F2, F10, F12, delete). Please can someone enlighten me on what is possible for me to be able to access the BIOS and reinstall windows. Thank you

  • Strange behaviour of PIX - cannot access all protocols from high to low security

    I have a 515 with four active interfaces (material of three and a VIRTUAL local area network). I have a DMZ interface with security level equal to 6. Inside network (Security 100) I can only access hosts on the DMZ using the HTTP protocol. Ping and telnet do not work while they do not work when I am connected directly to the network DMZ. The DMZ network is flat and all the guests have the PIX as their DGW. Here is a copy of the current configuration. Am I missing something? This shouldn't be so hard!

  • Cannot access folders shared from the Windows application

    I have the following:

    OS X 10.9 Mavericks

    Fusion 6.0.2

    Windows XP Professional VM

    Windows 7 Edition Premium VM family

    The main reason, I run the VMs is because I have a couple of diving watches that have only (former) Windows software to download their data.  Use a virtual Windows XP machine for some time without problems, I want Windows 7 like XP will soon be out of support.  I have recently implemented the Windows 7 VM, installed the software of the watch and the first time I used the software it worked.  The next time I went to use, applications can access the shared folders *.  I've never had this problem with the XP VM.  I can access shared folders on Windows Explorer.  I also found that if I copy a single file (any file) from a shared folder on the C: drive and then start the application, they are able to access the shared folders.  Obviously, copy the file changes the State of something that depend on windows applications.

    * File open and save dialog boxes include not Z:

    Additional information:

    Windows XP VM - Hardware Version 7 (this virtual machine was originally used with Fusion 3, and I hesitate to upgrade)

    Windows 7 VM - Hardware Version 10

    OK, I think I have determined that the cause of the problem, and it seems that this isn't a problem of merger as such.

    It seems that it was because I was running both Windows applications in compatibility Windows XP (SP3) mode.  In this mode, none of the applications are able to access network drives (and shared folders behave like network drives) until a copy was made with the approval of the admin.  By the granting of the authorization of R/W to the applications, I was able to run in normal mode and now the readers (including folders) network applications appear.

    I was able to reproduce the problem on a netbook, I'm running Windows 7 Starter.

    azguy2009,
    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.  The first thing I would say is to scan your system for viruses and malware.  If he's found nothing, or after cleaning, the problems are corrected so I suggest trying a system restore.  Here are the instructions for restoring the system: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306084

    If this does not help, then you must run the System File Checker tool.  This article explains the tool and how to make it work: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310747

  • Cannot open all programs on my desktop or in the start menu.

    Original title: my programs are not open, they are turning to outlook to open each

    I can not open all programs on my desktop or in the start menu. The icons have changed to resemble the outlook icon. Even when I try to open Outlook it gives me a message command line argument is not valid. I can however some programs work but I need to open a file within the program.

    This can happen if your file associations are broken.  Here's how to restore correct file associations.

    1. Press + R to display the run box, type RSTRUI and click OK.
    2. Choose a date when the computer was working properly, and then click on next to restore system files from that date.  The computer will restart with the fixed parameters.
  • Cannot access BIOS after own Win 7 installed on the new HD

    The machine is HP Elite E9240F. Here's what I did.

    1 replace the plant HD with faster player - went well

    2. clean install Win 7 on new drive - activate - went well

    3 reinstall the disc supplied with the box in the first place & format - went well.

    Now everything starts fine, and loads of Windows. NO problem BUT I cannot access the BIOS more. Not that I need at this time, but I would like to know that where I did it, I could.

    Repeated F1 or F11 at startup pressure will produce the black screen for the Windows Boot Manager.

    I removed the CMOS battery and retried - same results. I can access the blue screen when I select the boot sequence by pressing ESC but never can I go back in the system BIOS.

    Thoughts?

    All these systems are a bit different but F10 to enter the bios to me.  If it is your PC then F10 to enter the bios: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01925486

    Hello
     
    1. when the question is is produced?

    2. you remember of any changes to your machine before the question?
     
    I would like you to follow the steps mentioned below
     
    Step 1:
     
    Instead of bridge, you should be able to share the connection from your laptop.
     
    a. Click Start, click Control Panel
    b. go to your network and sharing Center.
    c. on the left side, click on manage network connections.
    d. right click on your wireless network adapter, click Properties, click the sharing tab, mark the tab to share this connection
    e. click on apply, then try to connect to xbox with your ethernet cable, either incidentally, it must be a crossover cable in order to function.
     
    Step 2:
     
    Disable all security software temporarily and see if the problem still occurs.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software
     
    Note: 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 need to 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, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
