Unknown network Vista problem

• Discovery Network Vista problems

  I have a PC running Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit version. The specs are 400 GB hard drive, Intel 2160 1 .8GHz duo core CPU, 2 GB memory DDR2 Ram. I use Kaspersky Internet Security 2009. I've been running this program for a month without any problem. I have the firewall in Windows Defender disabled and I use Kaspersky as 2 firewalls running at the same time, of course, could cause problems. My problem just started yesterday is the following. I have a Playstation 3 in another room that I share my media from my PC with. I did this for about a year with no problems. Now, I can do more is this. I checked my settings of network discovery and it is on 'custom' and I believe that he used to be in the position "on". But now when I try to turn it on by clicking on the button and clicking on apply will welcome back to custom. I can turn off, but not on. He's stuck on the custom. And I think that it is that I won't be able to share my media with my Playstation 3 into the other room. I know it says that if I changed my firewall settings it could cause this problem.  He said that my firewall settings must match the settings of Protocol I think? I tried the system restore, and it says my system restore is not completed successfully because of an "unspecified error" I tried restoring the system 4 times and I have been unsuccessful. About 2 months ago, I ran without any problems system restore. I can always go online and do everything else on my computer with no problems. It's just a problem of media sharing. I think the fact that he is stuck on "custom" is perhaps the problem because it makes my computer impossible. I used to see my Playstation 3 on the network when I hit view other devices on this network. Also my Playstation 3 always goes online and working properly, while sharing the same router as my PC wireless. I tried to turn off the two firewalls. Try each one separately. To have both. Temporarily, I even uninstalled Kaspersky Internet Security for my computer. I even temporarily shut down Kaspersky and Windows Defender turned off completely. Nothing has worked. My network discovery is still set to custom. I've also restored the firewalls on both of these programs to their default settings. Nothing has worked. I have download a different media player a few days ago, called TVersity. I thought this might have something to do with the problem, so I deleted completely. But I think he can still have messed up something in my computer. Sorry to be so long-winded but can someone help me? Does anyone else have this problem? I tried to solve this problem for 7 1/2 hours in a row and I'm frustrated exetremely and all ideas. I'm afraid that I can get more dirty things. Thank you all in advance for your help.

  Hi stangrun,

  DNScache, Function Discovery Resource Publication (fdrespub), Discovery (upnphost) UPNP device host and SSDP (ssdpsrv) are Windows services.  To access, please click Start, type Services in the search box.  Right-click on the service and choose Run as administrator.  When the service window come up you will be able to locate and see whether or not those services have already begun.  Alternatively, you can right-click and choose start their execution.

• network between XP and Vista problems

  I have 2 computers on the private network, an XP and a Vista.

  XP is connected with the ethernet cable to the internet router, Vista with wireless adapter.

  I installed the fix on the XP computer as it appears on the network of map.private Vista network, sharing files on both computers.

  On Vista, I can see and access the shared files on the XP computer. No problem in that direction.

  On XP, I see an old Vista computer network configuration (with an extra disk and other than common shared files) that I can't seem to update.
  XP does not see or update the new configuration on Vista computer and I cannot delete the old configuration (shows "open" or "explore" option only).

  Microsoft no longer supports Live OneCare, the XP computer had Norton and MS security essentials Vista instead.

  Previously, the networking was thin between 2 computers.

  I tried repeatedly to share files on the computer to Vista, but since the changes, sharing does not seem to take.
  Records are marked as shared, but when I check the details, shows only the user account from the vista computer.

  Previously, he showed "everyone" as well.

  Since this is the most obvious difference, I guess the problem is with the settings on the computer Vista, has perhaps to do with the switch to Ms security essentials.

  Any suggestions?

• Network Vista and XP - connection to the network printer problem

  I try to print to a network printer connected to a vista from a computer xp machine

  Two computers on a network
  Vista machine is connected through the ethernet card and has a connected printer
  XP machine is via wireless network

  Both machines have the same network name "mshome".
  Open ports on the firewall and also left Software Firewall

  When I print a job, I see it be wound on the info from the printer on both machines, but then, it is automatically deleted.

  I am able to access the hard disks from two computers

  The printer works this way, when you share a printer between XP and Vista where the printer is connected to Vista, XP will communicate with the printer and its drivers Vista.

  So as I suspected it was due from pilots, in your case XP will be offered 64 bit readers which it does not recognize

  If we rely on the printer connected to the Vista 64-bit operating system operating system 32-bit, we need to install the additional drivers (especially the XP must be with 32 bits, only 32 bits of the operating system will not show if it's 32-bit or 64-bit)

  So in this case, you must right click on the printer on Vista and go to the sharing tab, and then click additional drivers, it will be the operating system and Version to select and you will need to select Windows XP x 86 and install the drivers

  Now your Vista will be the 32-bit and 64-bit drivers installed. Now, when you share the printer, when the Contacts XP Vista, Vista has drivers and it will be able to share the printer correctly. Anish

• Home wireless network connection problems

  What should I do if I normally connect to the wireless network does not appear?  It is not a network card problem, because I can connect to other wireless and school and other places.  I tried to reset the router, ping and by unplugging and seeing what I could understand on the computer at home, but nothing does.  Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Have you tried other computers to connect to your router? You use both wire and wireless
  connection?

  Unplug the modem and Router 3 + minutes. And then reconnect the modem - when it is running
  Plug in the router - when it is running - restart the computer. This is known as a hard reset.

  Check with your router manufacturer support.

• Wireless network card problem code 13

• WiFi connected but unknown network and internet access

  Hello

  I think I've read enough forums and done enough research I finally post my question. My other laptop is Dell Inspiron 1545. It connects to my home network, but says unknown network and no internet access. I tried wifi and ethernet cable. The IP address is set to auto detect, I have reset the router, reinstalled the drivers for the card wifi, without success. Any ideas?

  -Taylor

  Only, I solved this problem on my Dell XPS, so I decided to share with the community.

  After the call to Dell and discover my warranty had expired (a little more than one year) and knowledge it would cost me $129 to get a response from time, I decided to go look for solutions. I found a thread of 2009, attributing the cause to a thing of access network Mcaffee. I knew that's the question because I don't personally like the major anti virus makes (they tend to pull up of stunts like this) so I had ripped my PC McAfee, as soon as I started. But this thread has helped me understand how to solve this problem.

  The problem seems to be an Agent of network access Protection on your system configuration (your start up programs). Make sure it is off. It wouldn't hurt also to try to disable the Internet Explorer ETW Collector Service (has a name shady so I nuked it too: P). this fixed my connection problem not identified immediately.

  Follow these steps (Windows 7):

  1. click on start.

  2. click on search at the bottom bar.

  3. type: msconfig

  4. press enter

  5. you should have a new window named System Configuration

  6. click on the Services tab.

  7. scroll down until you find: Network Access Protection Agent. It will be defined as stopped. It's normal.

  8. uncheck the box next to the network access Protection Agent.

  9. click on OK.

  10. restart your computer.

  Your internet connection should work now. If this is not the case, repeat the procedure until step 6, and then follow these steps:

  1. scroll down until you find: Internet Explorer collector Service to ETW. It will be defined as stopped. It's normal.

  2 uncheck Internet Explorer collector Service to ETW.

  3. click on OK.

  4 restart your computer.

  If these two steps don't fix your problem, go back to the Configuration of the system (Services tab) and it look for any other Network Access Protection Agent, such as Macafee named ones or something similar. Please be aware that uncheck essential services can cause pc problems, so make sure you know what you're unchecking before you do. If in doubt, feel free to google it.

  Another solution would be to temporarily disable your antivirus and firewall and see if that helps. If Yes, then you know where you need to focus.

  Good luck and hope it works!

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

  If a download was interrupted in the Mac App Store, then whenever you have new Internet download should then restart.

  If a download application is interrupted

  Once an Internet connection is restored, your purchased downloads should restart automatically. The Mac App Store may warn you that there is a problem with the download and ask if you want to restart downloads. Confirming will restart all pending downloads.

  Download time may vary according to the size of the file and the speed of your Internet connection. See this article on purchases made on iTunes Store for more information on the time to download large files.

• buy the update or complete, if vista problems

  It's about whether I should buy windows 7 updated version or full.

  dv4-1275mx has had problems for many months now with slow speeds, freezes, crashes, locks etc..  (note I had to reinstall the computer to its factory State a couple of times, and the problem persists so im sure its not virus) initially, I thought it was causing Media Center all the problems that I always get an error "media smart tv TSR has stopped working" and always seemed to be something running one the down payment (with the busy light flashes like crazy) the computer running slowly.  After that all these months I just found it's the registry causing most because it works fine now (after the execution of the tool pc registry mechanic) but still with media center and occasional freezes with windows Explorer errors.

  If I use windows 7 upgrade, if it "recycle" files of vista (which might be corrupt) continues to give me the same problems in windows 7.  If this is the case, will install the full version of windows 7 get rid of my vista problems (I guess they are problems and not hp vista).

  I see that nobody has answered your original question - what version should you buy?

  The decision you need to make has been described by one of the others - do an 'upgrade' or a 'clean install '?  You will have both of these options if you purchase the upgrade version.  You will get no benefit at all to purchase the full version.

  It is always better to do an install clean (which erases everything on the machine), especially if you are having problems with the system.  Yet once again, this can be done with the upgrade package.
