Networking Windows 7 for XP

Windows 7 Pro 64-bit SP1

XP Pro SP3

Microsoft Security Essentials

Windows Firewall

Wired Ethernet connection

Same account name 'my account' on both machines.

C:/folder is shared to the 'my account' user on both machines.

With the Windows XP firewall

XP can see Windows 7 machine and access C:/folder on the Windows 7 computer.

Windows 7 can't see XP machine.

With the Windows XP firewall

XP can see Windows 7 machine and access C:/folder on the Windows 7 computer.

Windows 7 can see XP machine and access C:/folder on the XP machine.

The following were selected on Windows 7:

Home

Turn on network discovery

Open file and printer sharing

Turn on public folder sharing

Use 56-bit encryption

Turn on password protected sharing

Use the user accounts and passwords to connect to other computers

Why should I turn off the Windows Firewall on the Windows 7 machine to machine XP see XP machine?

Thanks in advance.

I suggest that you check your settings against those in a procedure step by step for the creation of a network of Ethernet cable of two computers between Windows 7 and Windows XP with ICS

The firewall power difference implies that it might be the port settings that are at fault.

  • No drivers for Windows 7 for HP Pavilion G6-2260sh

    Hello

    I recently bought a laptop HP Pavilion G6-2260sh. on the site of HP Unfortunatelly there are only drivers for Windows 8. I don't want Windows 8, I need Windows 7 operating system.
    When I got the laptop there is an installed Windows 7 Ultimate with drivers. So it must be drivers for Windows 7 for HP Pavilion G6-2260sh... somewhere, unfortunately I messed type of windows and now it needs to be reinstalled. I asked a few questions autour and the guy who sold me the laptop and this is the situation:
    My laptop is with AMD processor and video card. He told me to reinstall what version of Windows 7, I want, then install the wireless card and ethernet so I can connect to the Internet. Then download and install a small program called "amd autodetect", this program will automatically find and download all the drivers.

    I don't have ethernet internet at home, I have only wireless.

    The problem is: after installing Win 7 how I'm supposed to install the wifi card to get this internet connection and deal with the AMD AUTODETECT program with all the drivers?

    Could you point me to somewhere I can find a driver for the wireless card. ? If there are drivers for everthing will be great! I'm looking a lot.

    This is the laptop (I DIND'T know what is relevant, while I posted everything)

    I am a woman and not much of an installer so I'm stuck here somehow. I know how to install the operating system and drivers if there are drivers. But I have no drivers and do not know what to do.

    If you have any other suggestions outside the "amd autodetect" program, we invite you to share them.

    If I have no other option than "amd autodetect" I'll need to install the card wifi somehow. Y at - it universal driver for wifi for HP Paviliom cards?

  • CAN´t find other computers on the home network Windows.

    I have a home network windows already defined with two desktop with Windows XP and a laptop with Windows 2000. The computers are connected to a router with ethernet cables and the lap top wireless (WiFi) to the same router. Now, I'm trying to connect a fourth computer (a desk top) with Windows Vista. It works fine to connect to Internet, but I can't reach the other computers on the network. On other computers, I can see a 'new', but I don't see the others of a "new". Can someone help me with the configuration of the computer "Vista"?  Thanks in advance.  / Thomas

    Hello
     
    To home network computers running different versions of Windows, we need to make sure that what follows.
    a. ensure that all computers are in the same workgroup.
    (b) the value of the private network location type.
    c. open ports in your firewall to allow file and printer sharing.
    d. turn on additional file and printer sharing options.
    e. consider using password protected sharing.
    5 using the network card.
     
    The NIC in the network and sharing Center is a graphical view of the computers and devices on your network, showing how they are connected and including problem areas. A computer running Windows XP can be detected and appear on the network map, you may need to install the Protocol Link-Layer Topology Discovery (LLTD) on this computer.
     
    To install LLTD, visit the following link and download: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/922120
