• Sharing files between Windows 7 and Windows XP suddenly stops working

  I have a set up working groups between Windows 7 and Windows XP computers.  I don't usually have a problem of file sharing, but suddenly XP computers do not connect to the server from Windows 7.  It will work for a while and then stops.  In order to solve this problem, I have to restart the server from Windows 7.  However, this problem occurs more and more and I would have preferred to find a permanent solution.  I checked all the normal solutions (IE firewall, no passwords, etc.), but I still have this problem.  I'm sure that all my settings are correct, as I am able to connect most of the time, but I know that there must be a solution out there to fix it permanently.

  I read a post that I'm not sure is related to my question:

  This problem may occur if the IRPStackSize registry entry on the server is set too low. I was unable to connect to the XP PC from any other PC on the network. Set ip 15 and problems went
  

  If that is related, please let me know.

  What is a patch that I need to download for XP computers?

  Any help would be grateful.  Thank you!

  I suspect that the limit is 5 concurrent connections for Windows 7 Home Premium, but I still need to find a reference book Microsoft.

• Using Windows 7 and 8.1 of Windows via a shared house group the WF-2540 Epson printer is off line.

  Original title: printer is offline

  using Windows 7 and 8.1 of Windows via a shared house group the WF-2540 Epson printer is off line.  This printer uses with two PCs using Windows 7 and a PC using Windows 8 with no problems.  Today it usually just printing using 1 PC with 7-1 8.  It is connected to the PC works well.  This isn't wired wireless we have wireless at the office.   Use this way for years with no problems, then suddenly this morning its all stopped.  I read so much information on it with no satisfactory response.  Epson will not know that it is not connected via radio or directly with a PC, so I'll through in circles.

  I reinstalled the PC on Windows 8 PC nothing works.  Any suggestions as to what I can try next as business has ground to stand without the printer!

  Thank you

• Groups on a joint network with Server 2003, Windows 7 and XP

  I have a network of small business running off an old server running Windows server 2003.  The workstations are 7 machines of Windows 7 and XP 3.  I would set up a group to easily share files not related to the common programme currently running on the server as well as share printers more easily, but have een advised by an "expert" do not do, as it network program (medical office) my will suffer. Including the old labels dymo and lexmark printer sharing is a pain though it might be easier thanks to the homegroup.  I should have updated the drivers on all computers by using the printers or only those connected via usb? If I need to change the workgroup name? I know that XP machines cannot participate in the home group, but we can work around this problem.

  The bottom line is that homegroup can be used with Windows 7 computers. You must set up a joint working group to share files/printers between the XP Win 7 machines. Insofar as the server running W2K3 domain?

  Hello

  Win7 when configured on the peer-to-peer network has three types of configurations of sharing.

  Group residential network = only works between Win 7 computers. This type of configuration, it is very easy to entry level users to start sharing network.

  Working network = fundamentally similar to previous methods of sharing that allow you to control what, how and to whom the records would be shared with.
  
  Public share = network Public (as Internet Café) in order to reduce security risks.

  Please Note that some 3rd party software firewall continue to block the same aspects it traffic Local, they are turned Off (disabled). If possible, configure the firewall correctly or completely uninstall to allow a clean flow of local network traffic.

• Group residential ghost

  I had trouble connecting my computers thanks to the homegroup, I decided to delete the Group and create one with the pc on the other, the old people, but he still sees the old homegroup that does not exist!

  I tried to restart the pc, stop waiting and then restart and a complete reboot of the network (modem and router).  Any other suggestions on how to get rid of this group residential ghost?

  Your windows 7 PC will have to be in a "task force" or "Work network", using the same name as the "old PC". The old systems cannot be members of a homegroup on 7.

• Desktop Windows 7 and windows 8 computer connected to the router

  I have a windows 7 64 bit desktop and a photosmart connected 7510 e wireless printer, although the office is wired, I bought your desktop windows 8 and connected to my router and set up my e-mail account and it did pick up my printer and can print but not scan or EFax, now I get a message from 1625 and cannot print from it.

  I tried to download the print and the analysis of web site of HP Assistant, but my PC froze.

  What should I run the disc or put up a home group, not worth to be able to E Fax or scan to email with it, simply print as he did before.

  Also on my windows 7, I can connect to connected HP and my printer appears ok, when I press the icon for the printer for Eprint it shows my email address of HP but when I press the Fax icon it doesn't say ANY NETWORK. Cloud services set up a static IP address for me last year as whenever we had a power outage I lost my connection to my printer. If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it.

• WIndows 7 and Server 2008 machines won't remember preferences of network discovery, needs to set every time you start up or wake up.

  Hello

  I was wondering if anyone here could be kind enough to help me solve this situation

  I have two machines Windows 7 and Server 2008 machines remember preferences of network discovery.

  I use the software on the windows server that collects data and information to two windows 7 machines and discover the network is necessary for this purpose

  These machines are set up in an autonomous local network set up as a working group the only other points on the network are none based on PC hardware that fortunately, the server communicates with and reads the data of

  Once network discovery is defined for the network, the system works as expected, but on each startup (or wake up) network discovery is lost and need to be authorized. This is the case at the time windows server 20008 r2 and windows 7

  How can I make these permanent preferences. for that it restarts and re establish communication its self without intervention

  am I missing a setting or if not is there a way I can script the selection preference on each start (/wake) upwards.

  the end user must be able to turn on the system / restart and use it with needing to have any IT / networking of knowledge to the outside to get the system running.

  Thank you for taking the time to read my request

• Code 80070241 in Windows update and "Windows cannot verify the digital signature for this file" when you try to run any program.

  Windows Update has appeared today when we started one of our machines, informing us that there are some installed updates. After reviewing the updates, we clicked on the "Install now" button, and immediately, it failed with the above error code.

  I tried to run regedit a reason unrelated, and it came with a dialog box error with "Windows cannot verify the digital signature for this file. A recent hardware or software change might be installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged or maybe it's a malicious software from an unknown source. »

  After researching here and elsewhere on google and did not find anything suitable, put us in the Win7 disk, recovery tools and tried to go back to a previous system restore point (3 days).

  The restoration went well, restarted, but the problem persists.

  Then, we just tried to install anti-malware software, but when trying to run the installer, we get a different error message indicating 'ShellExecuteEx failed; Code 577 "and then the same message on the verification of the digital signature.

  The computer is running fine all yesterday and has worked very well since just after the new year when he has been upgraded to Windows 7. No material changes have been made, and no software changes were made by users in the course of last week.

  The computer is an AMD Athlon II X 4 with 4 GB of RAM on a motherboard Asus M4A78-EM, linking a 64 GB SSD, with a 250 GB drive SATA data/programs. GPU is a Nvidia 260, and it has a CD and DVD player as well. It is connected to our router using the gigabit ethernet interface motherboards.

  It was under windows 32 - bit XP SP3 up just after the new year. When we put in place the new SSD to replace a hard drive older than we have did a new install of XP (slipstreamed with SP3) and then used the upgrade 32-bit W7 Home premium DVD version to upgrade the system. Since then, the system runs flawlessley.

  On the machine is MS office XP, Firefox 3.6.3, AVG 8.5 and a few games such as the Turbine DDO.

  The main user account used to try to solve these problems and to run Windows Update and try installing programs is a member of the Administrators group.

  Firefox works fine, serve, and he plays the games installed very well also. AVG reports to date, with no problems and has detected no threat.

  However, try to view the registry with regedit, or start Viewer event or compmgmt.msc that all do appear the message "cannot verify the digital signature.

  ***************************************************

  Can anyone offer an opinion on what might be wrong with this facility please, and how we could do to solve?

  Cannot run chkdsk/scandisk as he bought the message "cannot verify the digital signature" etc etc.

  This morning, the machine began to behave differently - stop playing back badly, refused to start Device Manager, open Control Panel correctly etc.

  So, I reset the BIOS to boot from the CD-ROM, slapped XP SP3 in reinstalled, then upgraded to Win 7 again.

  Still have no idea what caused the problem, but it seems to be gone now - reinstalled the same applications, AV / programs anti-malware, games, etc and everything seems to go fine now.
