Setting up windows xp as a server desktop and by linking a laptop Windows 7 via linksys E2000

I have a Dell Inspiron desktop on windows xp computer. I just plugged by ether net to a Linksys E200 wireless router. I was able to get my wife to recognize the router's cell phone and take the line with two computers (desktop via ether net, wireless laptop). My problem is: I can't do both at the network as a whole if I can use the office as a shared print server (USB Canon Mp170 printer). I am licensed and cannot afford to buy a wireless printer just for the laptop, so I would like to make this work. I tried the dell networking tool, I tried windows networking and they are not "see each other... any ideas?

Hello

You must configure the printers to share on the XP computer and install the drivers for the printer as a network printer on other computers using the correct version for each computer.

To set up sharing system.

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.

For the best newspaper of the results of each computer screen system and together all computers on a network of the same name, while each computer has its own unique name.

http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/net_name.jpg

Make sure that the software firewall on each computer allows free local traffic. If you use 3rd party Firewall on, Vista/XP Firewall Native should be disabled, and the active firewall has adjusted to your network numbers IP on what is sometimes called the Zone of confidence (see part 3 firewall instructions

General example, http://www.ezlan.net/faq.html#trusted
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. If the 3rd party software is uninstalled, or disables, make sure Windows native firewall is active .

Win 7 networking with other version of Windows as a work network.

In the center of the network, by clicking on the type of network opens the window to the right.

Choose your network type. Note the check box at the bottom and check/uncheck depending on your needs.

When you have finished the configuration of the system, it is recommended to restart everything the router and all computers involved.

If you have authorization and security problems, check the following settings.

Point to a folder that wants to share do right click and choose Properties.

In the properties

Click on the Security tab shown in the bellows of the photo on the right) and verify that users and their permissions (see photo below Centre and left) are configured correctly. Then do the same for the authorization tab.

This screen shot is to Win 7, Vista menus are similar.

The Security Panel and the authorization Panel, you need to highlight each user/group and consider that the authorization controls are verified correctly.

When everything is OK, restart the network (router and computer).

* Note . The groups and users listed in the screen-shoot are just an example. Your list will focus on how your system is configured.

* Note . There must be specific users. All means all users who already have an account now as users. This does not mean everyone who feel they would like to connect.

* Note. Some of the processes described above are made sake not for Windows, but to compensate for different routers and how their firmware works and stores information about computers that are networked.

  • Desktop PC cannot connect while laptops successfully connect via a wireless connection on the same home network.

    I have a Windows XP desktop PC.  I also have two laptops.  I can connect to the internet via laptops via my wireless router, but I can't connect to internet via desktop even when it is plugged directly into my DSL modem.  I replaced the Ethernet cable, nothing helps.  My status of connection to the Local network on the desktop shows little or no connectivity, but I've done all the troubleshooting procedures, (including / Release ipcong & ipconfig / renew) cause a message saying: unable to contact your DHCP server.  Any thoughts on how to solve this problem?

    What's your DHCP enabled router wireless

    If yes then brand IP automatically defined in properties Office lan yor

    or try set ip next ip address manually your portable computer ip address serial with the same mask of the subnet and the gateway address.

    It can happen when dsektop cannot find the DHCP server

    All my my work files on my desktop in CS5. I intend to continue to use CS5 to all working files for now. I bought only CS6 to backsave.

    But I want to LEARN CS6 and work slowly in before making a sudden or dramatic change.

    I want to turtorials, and go through the CS6 curve on my laptop. He finds peacfully beside me, every day. No downtime, I can play, learn and experiment. Without fear of doing any harm to my CS5 files or my mac of main production.

  • HP ENVY 750-175se: stuck on "Set up Windows" - fresh install of Windows 7

    Hello

    I have a new install of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit on my desktop HP Envy. I installed myself, everything went well. However, now when I am setting up Windows (on the screen where it says "Select a username for your account and your computer name to distinguish it from the network"), the keyboard nor the mouse work.

    The mouse on the background light is on and both work until I have start Windows (ie. the BIOS) and both are plugged into the USB 2.0 ports. I tried different USB ports around the system, but that did not work at this stage (well that as well the mouse and keyboard worked for the previous points of the facility before the restart brought me to this screen). I tried to disable Legacy Support in the BIOS, but that only returns an error message saying "Boot Device Not Found". I tried another keyboard that I know works on other systems, no difference here. I did research online that some users recommend using a PS/2 keyboard, but there is no port for a on this machine. I'm literally not to penetrate into my operating system, but none of the USB devices work. I've also seen suggestions about how to disable of EHCI or XCHI driver settings Pre-boot in the BIOS but I can't even find those on this BIOS. So maybe someone knows I am missing a setting in BIOS that can help me out here or something? Thank you!

    Hello:

    Here is what, in my view, the problem is...

    Intel has removed support for USB 2.0 chipset chipset Skylake.

    This means that only USB or normal DVD installs windows 7 will not work.

    Microsoft Windows 7 ISO not the USB 3.0 drivers natives either.

    Therefore, add USB 3.0 drivers in Windows ISO.    Intel has on it.  They have a utility that does all the work for you.

    https://Downloadcenter.Intel.com/download/25476/Windows-7-USB-3-0-creator-utility

    Run the utility and point your support Installation USB and windows 7 above should install.

    There is a readme on the link above for instructions on how to convert your DVD in a bootable usb flash drive.

  • You will need to upgrade the ASP to run on Windows server 2008 and IIS 7.0 application.

    I have an ASP application developed with Interdev 6.0; part of .NET and using the time to design Windows server 2000 controls.

    I need to upgrade the application to run on Windows server 2008 and IIS 7.0 ASP. I find some compatibility problems.

    The part that I'm stuck at the moment is the creation of objects in the runtime that gives an error.
