Have 2 pc windows 7 (desktop and laptop computer) and I want to use the password on the home network.

I recently had to replace the hard drive in my desktop PC. After you have reinstalled, I set up the network to connect to my laptop. I created a password of the UAC on both computers.

I activated ptected password sharing on two PCs.

Now when I try to access the network on a pc, a dialog box asks me to enter the network password.  I walked into the UAC password erro and to get that connection is not valid.

If I disable password sharing each PC is visible to another on the network.

I prefer to use password protected sharing just as extra protection.

I must have a parameter simple activation/deactivation.  Can anyone help.

You have a homegroup Setup?

a. open homegroup by clicking the Start button, click Control Panel.
b. type homegroup into the search box, and then clickhomegroup.
c. clickchange the passwordand click change password.
d. type the new password you want to use (or accept it suggested), click Nextand then click Finish.

After you change the password, all connected to your homegroup will ask you to enter the new password.

  • I have a HP Pavilion a1615.uk and I want to upgrade the hardware to run a 64-bit operating system.

    I have a HP Pavilion a1615.uk (RF783AA) and I want to upgrade the hardware so I can install a 64-bit operating system. What should I do to make a 64-bit system? It is an upgrade of the bios or it means new equipment?

    Thank you very much

    Mrsbex

    Hello

    Normally, for modern machines we only need the 64 bit operating system itself and the drivers appropriate to go with it. There is no need to upgrade the hardware except we may want more RAM to use the 64 bit OS.

    In your case, the machine is too old, my suggestion is to buy a new machine. In the long run, can be cheaper than buying part and piece of component to upgrade the existing.

    Kind regards

  • Moved from home office computer. Try to connect to the home network. Working Group changed now it won't let me connect you to Windows. It is the search for field. What can I do now?

    My TI guy told me to do the following...

    go to my computer, and then click Properties. Then go in the name of the computer from a network to a working group. I entered the name of my working group. Then it tells me to restart so I did.

    Now when I try to get into windows that connect, when I enter the username and password he tells me to check and make sure that they are correct and check the field. It does give me an option to choose a domain.

    It's husband's computer and I need to run quickly. Any help would be appreciated.

    Note please. I am a novice user and that you will need as more detailed instructions you can give.

    BTW - Windows XP Professional is installed on the PC.

    Not good.

    When you remove a computer from a domain, and put in a workgroup, you must ensure that you have a local user account with administrative privileges created on the machine before removing the domain.  Maybe the built-in Administrator account will work, but in most domain environments, the default password [White] is replaced by a different password.  Microsoft has an article that deals with this:

    "You can not connect after you remove the computer from the domain.
      <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/317049 >

    Your technician COMPUTER should have known this would be a problem.  If you are a novice user and you can not access the built-in Administrator account, then your best bet to get must return to the domain and have your guys IT re - join to the domain.  Make sure you have a local user with administrative privileges created before withdrawing again to the field.

    Note that you normally will not have to remove a computer from a domain to make it work in a home-networking environment (working group).  You should be able to connect using the credentials cached [field] and your home network must always be visible to you.

    Hello

    Unfortunately, you can only create 1 set of recovery media.

    Copy and burn recovery USB DVD and then using DVD to make the system recovery will not work.

    What you can do is to backup all your data on an external drive. Do a factory reset with the USB of recovery to recover all partitions including the recovery on the HARD drive partition.

  • Have an Acer which need a reinstall, but I don't want to use the recovery partition.

    Basically, Acer for a reason any installed this copy of windows with a buttload of bloatware, used FAT32 instead of NTFS, and added a recovery partition which literally takes half of the hard drive. No physical reinstall disk, of course.

    What I am wanting to do is to install a new copy of the same version of Windows from a vanilla install disc, but I did not posses disc. My questions are:

    1 - ordinary copy, non - OEM activate again using the old product key?

    2. is it legal to download an .iso of the Setup from somewhere disk to install it? (If not, I might be able to locate a friend with a copy...?)

    Anti-malware programs are a good tool to use, but they are not 100%.

    About file system conversion, see these two pages:

    http://www.NTFS.com/quest3.htm

    http://www.aumha.org/win5/a/ntfscvt.php

    Since you already have a safe way to reinstall XP, I just do it. No need to download the .iso that could end does not properly.

  • retired former host ESX 3.5 and you want to use the license for the new ESX 3.5host

    We put one of our ESX host out of service and will be replaced by a new ESX host.  I would like to use the license from the old host to the new host.  How do I do that?

    BY stopping the old host you have returned the licenses to the pool available and ready to be used by the new host.
