Try to connect to the network, get a msg "the server is not configured for transactions.

I have a desktop running Vista Professional (SP2) and a laptop running XP Professional (SP3). They are connected by a WiFi network, the Desktp acting as a server. Everything worked well until the Office had a problem and had to have re-installed Windows. Now, although the Office can find the laptop, the laptop can not find the office or its working group. I get a message " is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the server administrator to find out if you have access permissions. The server is not configured for transactions. »

  • But once, for about five minutes, it worked - and then stopped again. For no apparent reason.
  • If I connect with an Ethernet cable and no WiFi machines, the last sentence of this message changes to "the list of servers of this working group is currently unavailable."
  • When you run the Configuration Wizard from the network on the laptop, he told me that I have to run the Wizard "on each of the computers on your network. To run the wizard on computers running XP, you can use the Windows XP CD or a network setup disk". I was not able to do so - the XP disc I have does not behave as indicated by the wizard and the wizard does not recognize my CD - RW drive to create a network setup disk.

Can anyone help?

Well, who has not responded to my problem, but it was eventually fixed by a support guy with the company who sold me the desktop PC. As I understand it, it was a problem of file sharing. Seems he had to undo sharing all my records on the desktop, then re - share once again, since when I did not have this particular problem. But it's obviously not ideal (in MS eyes at least) to the network of computers with different operating systems.
