  I was trying to set up a homegroup on my main computer, but on the second computer, I never had the opportunity to join the homegroup. I'm sure that I have everything set up properly, but I can't get the second computer to join.

• Network discovery cannot be activated, windows 7 Home premium.

  This problem is very simple to describe, but I do have a lot of time I can't find a solution. Help appreciated.

  In the network and sharing Center, advanced screen sharing, there is the option to turn on network discovery and file/printer sharing.

  When I put one or both these on 'on' and click on 'save changes', the screen closes without guest or delay. If I open the screen again two options are always on 'off '.

  I checked that the services concerned (DNS Client, Function Discovery Resource Publication, discovery SSDP and UPnP device host) are started and they are.

  Tried to reboot, windows update.
  Network troubleshooting is, as always, useless.

  I suspect that maybe some third party software plays a role here. I checked for malware and removing applications with a network component.

  This is probably related. I get an error 0 x 00000001, when I try and share a local printer.

  Manager tasks shows a two process named csrss.exe running, 936 kb, the other is 6532 KB. A matter of concern?

• Windows Vista Home Premium 32 Bit > Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit?

  Just a question, I currently have Vista Home Premium 32 Bit OEM and want to upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit.  When you buy an upgrade pack does with Versions 32 and 64 BIT, I understand not doing a clean install, etc..  but the DVD with this capability upgrade?  as far as I can see the comments are widespread, and State if the disk used for the upgrade is a full version or an upgrade copy.   Because I would rather buy the upgrade on a whole new pack of detail for reasons of $.

  Yes, this full and updated details to level version boxed packages include records of 32 and 64-bit.

  Upgrade paths:
  When important changes to your computer, for example an upgrade, it is always recommended that you back up your system before installing a new version of Windows. In your case, you can upgrade to Windows 7 depending on the edition and the architecture of Windows Vista, you have installed. If you are running a 32-bit version of Vista and upgrade to a 64-bit (Windows 7 edition) version, you'll have a pure make install, it is the opposite case.

  If you are using Windows Vista Home Basic or Premium consumer editions, you can only upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate. Also, you can make the downgrades, which means, if you are running Windows Vista Ultimate Edition now, you cannot downgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. You perform logical upgrades:

  Windows Vista Home Basic > Windows 7 Home Basic, Premium or Ultimate
  Windows Vista Edition Home Premium > Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate
  Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Professional, enterprise or ultimate edition
  Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Enterprise
  Windows Vista Ultimate > Windows 7 Ultimate.

I'm not computer savvy I need serious help here I thank anyone who can help me in this situation

  Version/edition of Windows is running on the computer? Windows XP or Windows Vista?

  The upgrade to Windows XP?

  Please read these instructions carefully and completely before you begin installing Windows 7: there are important steps that you must follow to upgrade your PC from Windows XP to Windows 7 in order to preserve your files and settings.

  Before you begin, you'll need to backup all your data to an external storage device, and you will need all the installation discs for the programs that you want to keep. Please make sure that you have an external hard drive (see details below).

  More detailed instructions are available at windows.microsoft.com/upgrade-windows-xp. Here are the basic steps.

  1. start Windows Upgrade Advisor (windows.microsoft.com/upgradeadvisor) to see if there are known issues that may affect the installation and the question of whether you should install the version of 32 or 64 bit Windows 7.

  2 back up your files and settings on an external hard drive using Windows Easy Transfer (windows.microsoft.com/windows-easy-transfer). If you do not have an external hard drive, you will not be able to use Windows Easy Transfer. Alternatively, you can copy the files you want to keep on a USB stick, CD or DVD.

  3. you will need to manually reinstall your programs, such as Microsoft Office, after I installed Windows 7. Gather the installation for your programs and all partner/license product key discs. You may be able to download programs from the Internet. For example, Windows Live Messenger can be installed from the download.live.com/messenger.

  4. Insert the Windows 7 DVD in your PC. When asked "which type of installation you want. Click on "Custom (advanced)."

  5. when Windows 7 is installed, use Windows Easy Transfer to restore your files and settings.

  If you are not comfortable Windows 7 installation, check with a local retail or the services of the PC company store to see if they offer upgrade services.

  Vista to Win 7 Pro

  I ran Win 7 compatibility program on my laptop Vista HP Pavilion DV9700 Core 2 Duo and he said that I can upgrade to Home Premium or Ultimate.  What is Pro? (I Pro works on an old Toshiba P4 laptop...)

  Yes, it can run Windows 7 Professional, but you can do a custom installation.

  The reason why he recommend Home Premium or full, is because there is no place in Windows Vista Edition upgrade Home Premium to Windows 7 Professional.

• Windows 7 Home Premium cannot map NAS / network storage drives

  Hi, I'm currently on a PC Windows 7 Home Premium and I have two 2 NAS drives.

  I am running a Buffalo Linkstation (old version) and a new Iomega Home Media Network Hard drive.

  Initially I thought it was just my Linkstation from Buffalo who is older and has had no updates of the firmware that cannot be mapped as a network drive. But I just got my new Iomega hard drive today and installed the latest firmware and software. The Iomega software detects the drive and all of its shared folders but the problem is that I can not map any shared folders as a network drive, making it useless on my Windows 7 computer.

  I can access both NAS drives on my windows xp pro machine very well.

  I got off the phone with Iomega technical support and they said that it is a well known problem with Windows 7 Home Premium and readers of Samba. Is there someone out there who can give me a solution? I already tried the fix LMCOMPATIBILITYLEVEL on other forums I found by changing the values 1 or 2 - but still no luck.

  It gives me an error of network even when I try to connect to the ip address of the NAS, however - it appears on my network but I can not access or map!

  I really want to get my readers network running on windows 7 Home Edition premium without having to upgrade to other users are still having problems, I read. It's a little pathetic I can't even map a network drive on my pc.

  I had exactly the same problem with my drive hard Lacie network. If your drive contained donkey type of media, music, or video, Win 7 use the reader as a "Windows Media Connect" device, opening the disk in Media Player, showing only media files...

  This prevents access to all ot0her of the player records.

  However, I found that it is possible to add the drive as a network drive, if you know the name of the root folder.

  In my case, it's "openshare", so when you enter the path to network drive, I use \\192.168.xxx.xxx\openshare, and it allows me to access the drive...

  Why Microsoft chose to make this type of access to the files of so difficult to get simple network, just blows my mind, knowing that WinXP has it done easily...

  I hope you were able to understand my English, and that this could be useful.

  Kind regards

  It cannot get MS Streets & Maps works on Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.

  See the title.

  Hello Gemard,

  Streets and trips 2008, 2009 and 2010 are compatible with Windows 7. Earlier versions may not work, however you can try and use Compatibility Mode.

  If the program is not compatible, then you try to install and run the program in compatibility mode.

  Use the following steps:

  (1) right click on the program

  2) click Properties

  3) click on the Compatibility tab

  (4) select run this program in compatibility mode and select Windows Vista or other operating system, the program has been run successfully.

  Check out the link here: make sure to run older programs in this version of Windows

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows

  If compatibility is not successful, then try and run the program compatibility problems:

  1. open the troubleshooting program compatibility Troubleshooter by clicking the Start button.

  Then click on Control Panel. In the search box, type troubleshooting, and then click Troubleshooting. Under programs, click on run programs for previous versions of Windows.

  2. follow the instructions in the troubleshooting.

  If you are unable to install a program, insert the installation disc for the program and, using the Troubleshoot utility, navigate to the program setup file, usually called Setup.exe, Install.exe, or something similar. This utility is not designed to work on programs that have an .msi file name extension.

  If it is not a success, since you're under Windows 7 Home Premium, you can search for 3rd party software of vitualization that works on Home Premium and run Streets and Trips in a virtual environment.
