I tried a number of things - using the homegroup in windows 8, defining the windows 8 PC the existing workgroup name, change a XP Workgroup device name for the residential group 8 windows and always without success.

You must go to the network control panel > choose homegroup and sharing options, then click on "change the advanced sharing settings...". "It should show that the private sector is the current profile.  The value "Turn on network discovery" and 'Turn on file and printer sharing' and 'use the accounts users and passwords... ". »

  • can not connect to windows xp

    I lent my xp to my sister; She gave she, but she forgot the password "admin". ERGO, I can't connect to windows. What can I do? Thank you

    Hello

    If you are using XP Home Edition, the built-in Administrator account probably doesn't have a defined password. You can start in safe mode, where this account will be selectable when connecting. It allows to connect and change the password of your normal connection.

    To start in safe mode, keep hitting F8 twice a second after turning on the PC until you get the start menu where safe mode is selectable by the up/down arrow keys, and then press ENTER.

    If you are using XP Professional, try to connect using the built-in Administrator account. You don't need to do it in safe mode (although you can if you wish). If your normal login screen is a display of the user symbol and hit ctrl-alt-del twice to get to login to text entry. Type administrator as the user name and try a blank password.

  • Can not connect to Windows 8 on a computer that cannot connect to the internet

    1. I forgot the password which was used last on this computer to turn off the line connection
    2. unable to get the computer online because the only modern it might connect to a fried.

    3. it is a Vaio Duo and has no Ethernet port.

    4. I don't care about the data, so don't mind wiping clean but I don't want to pay for the office. Computer has no hard drive, so I can't restore the BONES of the disks.

    What would you suggest here?

    Thanks for any help

    Hello

    Please provide an opportunity to help Microsoft Community.

    If you do not remember the password, you can try to reset the password online. You can use Internet Explorer to reset the password for the Microsoft Account.

    Open Internet Explorer on another computer, and then try to reset the Microsoft Account password by following the steps in the link below.

    Forgotten password and other connection problems

    As mentioned you use computer Vaio Duo which I checked comes pre-installed with Windows 8.

    If the Windows operating system comes pre-installed on the laptop, then you will need to contact the manufacturer of the system for the installation media that allows you to update or reset the settings of the computer.

    Of the manufacturer of the system provides a built in utility to repair the operating system which is known as system recovery partition, I ask you to contact you the Sony Support for more information on how to refresh/reset the settings of the computer.

    Please visit the link provided below for support from Sony:

  • Can I use the Windows key from another computer non-working on my computer?

    Can I use the Windows key from another computer non-working on my computer? I took the key of this computer and used on my current computer, but I get a message indicating that the key is not authentic, even if it is directly from a previously active computer.

    Original title: Activation

    Hello

    No.; If the operating system on the other came computer preinstalled (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.) you can't use it on another PC.

    If the laptop/computer came with preinstalled Windows operating system (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.), this product key provided with your computer/laptop to the OEM license preinstalled and is not transferable.

    OEM license/product key (systems of operating pre-installed on Dell, HP, etc.) is related to the first machine it is installed on and dies when dies of this machine.

    Only retail Operating System license that you buy and install yourself, are allowed to be transferred to another machine.

    And retail licenses also can be installed on a machine at one time.

  • How to remove a computer from my working group under XP and Windows 7?

    We have recently implemented a network composed of our three computers (2 XP) Home Office and 1 Windows 7 to share files and printers.

    However, we found its malfunction and could not share what we expect.  One of the reasons, we can see it, could be one of the computers have been infected.

    So, we try to remove this computer from the working group.

    However, no matter how hard I searched on Internet, there is no way to remove the infected computer's existing working group.

    There that experts can help us?

    Thank you very much!

    Hello

    You cannot remove a computer from a working group, but you can change the name of the working group.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/295017

    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/51711-workgroup-name-view-change.html

    But that will not necessarily mean that they are not accessible by other computers on the network, or it will necessarily make the other less likely to be infected through this PC computers.

    The only way to "withdrawal" of a computer on a network is to unplug the network cable or remove the name of the wireless network.

    If you are concerned about a possible infection, you must get the malware to day and scan for malware protection.

    However, I suspect it's more likley your problems are caused by the lack of knowledge in the topic network different Windows operating system. This can help...

    You must create a new instance of the DPS App Builder application. Select iPhone and iPad. If you use the same mobileprovision files (or mobile layout updated of the files of the bases on the same ID App), it is considered that a version update of the application itself.

  • I can only connect to Windows safe mode. I get a blank screen otherwise

    Original title: I can only connect to my computer in safe mode. Start windows normally my screen begins to blink on the logon to the black screen. What should I do?

    I was told it had something to do with internet explorer and that I need to update my windows, but my computer won't let me.

    Safe mode is a number of things.  First, he starts using the clean boot programs needed to operate.  Second, he began to use a screen resolution 'safe' which is supported by all monitors (usually 640 x 480).  Your problem may be due to your video card being assigned to a resolution that your monitor does not support or does not reach.  If it is a recent development, the fastest solution may be to perform a system restore to a time before you had this problem.  You can do safe mode.

    "How to restore Windows XP to a previous state"
      <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/306084 >

    Another suggestion is that, after the safe boot mode, change the display resolution (right click Desktop-> properties-> settings tab).

    If those who do not resolve your issue, you can use Microsoft System Configurator, msconfig, to choose what programs launch at startup.
