Unable to show the XP on Vista computer and a few other networking issues
Hello
I tried to get my network set in place over the past two days without success. The details of the network are:
Main computer is under XP Professional SP3 with the printer and the router connected to it. I also have a laptop running Vista professional that connect wirelessly to the router. I am able to ping the desktop from the laptop, but not vice versa. Both computers have the same subnet and default gateway address. By reading some troubleshooting, it was advised to run the microsoft patch to install the LLTD Responder on the xp machine I did. I can see the files in the subfolders, but when I run services.msc program is not for me to start. Desktop and laptop computer are in the same workgroup. Before you install the hotfix, I could see the laptop from the network to the desktop but now I can't. I also noticed that even if I have the LLTD my laptop configured to start automatically, it is not this. In fact, it seems to stop automatically, and I have to restart the service.
I also try to put in place so that I can print from my laptop and my ipad sharing printer. The printer and the desktop are set to share printers, but I can't find it on the laptop. I'm assuming that once I see the desktop on the network it 'may' reslove this problem.
Anyone have any ideas on what I can do to solve the problem? I can always connect all computers to the internet. I also see the two computers on the network when I run the network configuration in norton 360.
Thank you very much
Emily
N ° if it never works, then a firewall is not your problem. Remember that Microsoft Networking can take up to 15 minutes to find a new devices on the network. If it does not appear and you want to speed up the process a bit, try to search for the computer...
Start-> Search-> [for files & folders (the classic case)]
then, down in the section 'Search other elements', select 'computers '.
Enter the name of the other computer, and then click "search now".
This launches a pretty aggressive search for the other computer.

Please help with this
Try this: go to "Start" then go to "Computer" right click on computer and left-click 'manage '.
This will bring you to the management of the computer. From there, you should see the drive. Try "initialize disk".
If you are not the "backup operator" or the "Administrator", then go to the control panel - system tools
-Administrative Tools, then click on "disk management". From there, you can follow these instructions.
Initialize new disksBackup operator or administrator is the minimum number of members required.
To initialize new disks In disk management, right-click the disk you want to initialize, and then click Initialize Disk.
In the dialog box initialize the disk , select the disk to initialize. You can choose to use the master boot record (MBR) or the style of partition GUID partition table (GPT).
Note The disk is initialized as a basic disk.
Additional considerations- New disks appear as uninitialized. Before you can use a disk, you must first initialize it. If you start disk management after the addition of a disk, the disk initialization Wizard appears then you can initialize the disk.

Original title: printing problems
I am facing a problem with the printer - or maybe a computer problem. I can't pinpoint the problem. My printer (Epson Workforce 645) appears as the default on my computer, and it says 'ready', but it will not be printed. My documents will in Quebec, but after about 30 seconds, the State spends printing, error. I've tried everything. (Occasionally), it will display a test page. Any ideas?
Hi Julia,
Thanks for posting the question in the Microsoft Community!
You are unable to print and get the error message.
I imagine the frustration you feel when you are unable to print.
This can happen due to connection problems, malicious content or third-party programs.
1 have you tried all the Troubleshooting steps?
2 is the computer, or a printer attached to a domain network?
3. are you able to print from Notepad?
4. what documents do you speak?
5 is the full error message?
To check if it's because of connection problems malware content follow the steps mentioned below:
Method 1: Run the troubleshooter
See the site:
Open the printer Troubleshooter
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows7/open-the-printer-Troubleshooter
Method 2: Scan the computer to remove all possible malicious content
See the site:
Microsoft safety scanner
http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx .
Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.
Method 3: Clean boot
When the computer starts to boot, programs non-Microsoft will not be started and would avoid any interruption of their share.
See the site:
How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135 .
Note: once you are done with the boot, follow step 3 in the article to restore your computer to normal startup.
Note: If in case you are connected through a wireless connection and then when you start the System Configuration utility to perform the clean boot, click Startup and Services tab one time and check see topic wireless are turned on (Enabled).
I hope this helps. If the problem persists, let know us and we would be happy to help you.
