• Vista/XP Home network problems

  I created home network a few weeks ago.  I have a desktop computer THAT XP (old) with a local cable/network connected to a router for my laptop Vista wireless.  While I can get on the Internet and connectivity shows very well, Web pages are slow to load on both machines and I'm unable to download mail from my ISP to my laptop unless I have first download it on the XP desktop.  This problem exists since the network was created.  It is a private network and I tried the two disabiling and allowing the network discovery and sharing in network and sharing Center.  WHY I can't download my mail on my laptop and why are computers so painfully slow now?

  Hi Artistaplm,

  To better understand the issue, I would like to clarify the following things:

  (a) are you referring to the Internet or network connection?

  (b) how to access your mail? Using a mail client or Webmail? This happens at the same time?

  Troubleshooting Internet connection problems can be a challenge because there are so many possible causes, to refine the question, I suggest you follow the steps mentioned in the link below:

• Windows Vista Home Basic - problem with the icons does not meet various Windows services after trying to download updates

  I use Windows Vista Home Basic on a Dell Inspiron 1501.  I have recently accepted that some guest downloads Windows with terrible results.  First downloads do not appear to have been accepted and the system of guard stop and startup trying to cancel.  Second as I result, I seem to have lost access to a range of Windows tools.  For example in Panel I can't open system icons or Windows Update.  Nor can I access these services from any other avenue on the computer.  Whenever I have find an icon or a file screen flashes a dialog briefly and then disappears.  The effect of this is that I'm completely unable to access or to implement the recommended tools or services that could solve this problem.  My ability to manage my computer has been reduced to zero.  Dell were not receptive and I can't get a response from Microsoft

  worm post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

  Ideas:

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

  One thing you can try try the system restore, safe mode.

  Start the computer in safe mode with networking capabilities (hold DOWN F8 while the computer starts).

  To start your computer in safe mode, you can check the link below:http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Windows/en-US/help/323ef48f-7b93-4079-a48a-5c58eec904a11033.mspx>

• Vista unidentified network problem

  My HP G60 laptop under vista home premium got an "unidentified network" problem and not able to get on the internet. I even tried to reinstall vista to factory default, still the same problem with my wireless router.

  Spec:

  -HP G60 laptop computer, running vista Home premium 32-bit, with 3 GB of RAM

  -Belkin router

  -I am able to connect via a fine wired line but with a Wi - Fi, it shows constantly 'unidentified network', even if I changed the Private mode in network and sharing Center.

  -J' tried the following: listed an SSID different router, reset the router by default, to reinstall vista, tried other mechanisms, such as specified in the forum, with no difference

  -When you configure the router, I have clone MAC of the laptop to the router to get the connection with Comcast, has done that with network cable connected, internet connection worked well after cloning.

  -no virus SW installed.

  Any suggestions on what might be the solution here? Thank you.

  Hello

  It seems that something is blocking the wireless to connect to the wireless router and to obtain a valid IP address.

  Maybe this can help.

  These steps and tell us where is the breaking point.

  Check the Device Manager for the wireless card valid entry.

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

  If there is no valid entry, remove any entry from fake and re - install the drivers for the wireless card.

  Check network connections to make sure that you have a network icon/entry wireless connection, and that the properties of the icon (right-click on the icon) are correctly configured with the TCP/IPv4 protocol in the properties of network connections.

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

  ------------------

  The wireless card drivers much also install utility wireless of the seller.

  Make sure that if there are teas from Wireless Utility of seller does not work with the native Windows wireless utility (Service WLAN).

  ----------------

  Make sure you firewall No. preventing / blocks wireless components to join the network.

  Some 3rd party software firewall continue to block the same aspects it traffic Local, they are turned Off (disabled). If possible set up the firewall correctly, otherwise totally uninstall and get rid of its remaining processes that permit the own local network traffic flow.

  If the 3rd party software is uninstalled, or disables, make sure Windows native firewall is active .

  party like Hello and NetMagic 3rd network managers can block local traffic too.

  ---------------------------

  Stack TCP/IP work should look like.

  Right-click on the wireless network connection card, select status, details and see if she got an IP address and the rest of the settings.

  http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/status-NIC.jpg

  Description is the data of the card making.

  The physical address is MAC of the card number.

  The xx must be a number between 0 and 255 (all xx even number).

  YY should be between 0 and 255

  ZZ should be between 0 and 255 (zz all the same number.)

  The date of the lease must be valid at the present time.

  * Note 1. IP that starts with 169.xxx.xxx.xxx isn't valid functional IP.

  * Note 2. There could be an IPv6 entries too. However, they are not functional for Internet or LAN traffic. They are necessary for Win 7 homegroup special configuration.

  ---------------------------------------------------

  A message in the small window that says connected wireless doesn't means that you are really a valid functional connection.

  Above everything is OK, you must be able to connect to the router.

  Connection to the router means that you can enter the IP of the router base in an address bar in one go, being able to connect and configure the router menus see.

  If it doesn't connect to the router, journal newspaper from any computer that can connect to the router wirelessly with a wire, disable wireless security, make sure that the wireless SSID broadcast is enabled and try to connect with no. wireless security.

  Enable security wireless after you eat to make a functional connection.

• Vista Home Premium problem: the system automatically restarts

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A200 with Vista Home Premium installed on it. I bought it about two years ago. Last month, the laptop always automatically restart. Although I restore the system to its factory, the problem still exist. I also use recovery disk, but it has not solved the problem. And then I intend to reinstall my vista Home premium. However, I don't have an installation disc. This is because as my laptop with Vista Home premium pre-installed on it. How could I get a vista installation disc Home premium? If I contact the manufacturer (Toshiba) or you can get it from Microsoft?
  Thank you

  Andi

  original title: problem Vista Home Premium

  If the laptop comes with Vista Home Premium installed, then do a restore to factory re-installed this program.

  Go to start / computer / system properties and read what is installed on your system.  It's probably Vista Home Premium.  You don't need the disk to re - install anything else (and recovery options will not solve the problem if a full restore to factory settings did the trick).

  You can get in trouble with your device drivers (but I doubt it). Go to the Device Manager by going to start / find and type Device Manager and enter and then double-click on the program icon that appears.  Check each device to a red x, yellow! or white?  These identify devices with problems probably (drivers, but also of conflict or something else).  Click on each for more details and troubleshooting tips.  If you need to get drivers (and you need you to do all you have time to do - they help way beyond simply solve this problem), let the computer dealer or the manufacturer of the device (NOT of Microsoft Updates).  In fact, you must disable automatic updates in Windows Update driver as follows:http://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/how-to-disable-automatic-driver-installation-in-windows-vista/. Follow these steps to get the drivers: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/ht/driverdlmfgr.htm.  Once you have the drivers, you can install them via the Manager device as follows:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-device-manager-install-driver.html.

  It seems to me like some kind of hardware problem which is the cause after what you did to remedy.  If the above does not work, then I suggest that you take it for a repair of computer diagnostic and repair shop.  Make sure that you back up your first data as they can wipe the hard drive clean for their efforts.  Before that, you can contact the manufacturer to see if they can offer advice or suggestions (and check how their use to maintain the machine would cost).

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• Home network problem: 0 x 80070035: network path not found.

  I have problems with my home network; my laptop is unable to access the files on my HTPC

  More precisely:

  Laptops and PCs are running Windows 7 Ultimate. My laptop is connected to the home wireless network, the PC is connected through the LAN. Router is a Netgear DG834GV. Both computers have fixed IP addresses. They are part of the standard workgroup workgroup. There was formerly a group residential, put in place, which worked very well. We also have a Vista laptop that does all the unusual problems. Until a few days ago, the whole Setup worked perfectly. I could previously access/copy/distribute multimedia content, play on the PC via Zune music on my laptop and print from my laptop to the computer, but now I am unable to do one of these. The other laptop still works fine.
  From the network on the PC screen, I can see the files from the laptop and access.

  However, since the network on the computer screen laptop, I see the PC, but when I try to open it I get the error "Windows could not access \\MEDIACENTER. 0 x 80070035 the network path was not found. "I ping the PC with the IP address and name, and I can even remote to the computer desktop.

  ipconfig on the laptop did something funny...

  ... up to 200. I can't that assume it goes back to #1 as well.

  After a few suggestions on here I just went through the enable netbios over TCP/IP, but now I can't see even the PC! Still can ping and access internet tho.

  Any suggestions as to what may be the cause?

  Here is the solution for "error code 0 x 80070035 network path not found" on Windows Vista and Windows 7 computers. Click on the button 'START', select 'CONTROL PANEL' and go to 'DEVICE MANAGER'. Click on "NETWORK CARDS", then click on 'VIEW' and select 'SHOW HIDDEN DEVICES'. In the expanded view, you will see a long list of numbered "MICROSOFT 6to4 ADAPTER". My Windows 7 Professional Office had 200 of them. Right click and select 'DELETE' on all but 1 of them. You can only do 1 at a time, so it takes some time. When you have only 1 left, restart the computer and enjoy being able to see the other computers on your network, including the RESIDENTIAL group files.

• Windows Vista Home Premium - problem "task manager has been disabled by your administrator".

  Nice day

  I had problems with my task manager (I use the operating system "Windows Vista Home Premium"). Evertime I try to access the program, he returns with "task manager has been disabled by your administrator". I used different tools to remove malware and got rid of a lot of problems but still can not in Task Manager.

  I created a new user with administrator account and logged on it and had no problem until my 'Task Manager' program open, but when I went back to my origional administrator account the same problem occurred.

  Why can I get to "Task Manager" in my new account administrator and not the former?
  I still have malware in the old account or do I go into my registry and restore something?

  I am at a loss, and any help would be appreciated. I'm worried that I can always have some kind of malware that prevents me to access my task manager in my old account.

  Please give step by step instructions because I am not computer savvy computer even when it comes to fixing the problems of this kind.

  Thanks in advance.

• WiFi in home network problem

  Just recently (30/05/15) installed my wifi router Linksys AC1200 wireless with home network.  Everytime I turn on my HP Tablet, running Windows 8, it causes a touchscreen HP Pavilion 23 start to print a manual on my modem cable to my main printer to my main PC.  The printer (connected wireless) HP Envy 4500, part of my network (wireless) and I can't seem to understand what to do about it.  The option online (192.168.1.1 - Smart WiFi Guide) troubleshooting Linksys seems not be able to detect a problem or fix.  Don't know what else to do.  Technical support phone can't seem to find a solution to the problem either.  Any ideas?

  You may have something set up in the print queue? Is printing your Tablet configured for the wireless?

• WRT610N home network problems

  Hello, my network is not working properly at home.  Computers communicate with each other and I can't save on my NAS.  I think that there is a problem with administrators and/or the useres, but I have no idea.  This is the upward.  I'd appreciate any help that anyone can give me.

  (Wireless) LAPTOP running XP SP3.  DESKTOP computer running Windows 2000.  Western Digital MY BOOK (1 TB, call the BIG HD) connected to the WRT610N for NAS.  Western Digital MY BOOK (500 GB, call LITTLE HD) connected directly to the DESKTOP and shared with EVERYONE.  Computers and the router are assigned to the 'HOME' network  All IP addresses are static.  All firewalls have other computers IP Allow or FULL TRUST.  Before adding the WRT610N computers are networked and two external drives we connected to the DEKSTOP and everything worked great using a wrt54g.  The two external HDs were shared and I could read/write in everything on a hard drive of computers.   I could save the laptop via Norton 360 on each disc. Only problem was the speed and I wanted the SIN for the DLNA media service. Since then, I installed the WRT610N and connected to it the BIG HD for the uses mentioned previously.  There are a couple of different issues going on that I can't understand.

  First of all, DESKTOP does not see other computers in the HOME network.  It is always assigned to the HOME network.  Trying to view other computers in the HOME network, that the DESKTOP appears.

  Laptop will show the WRT610N and the OFFICE of the HOME network.  Laptop will be connect/read/write to the BIG HD on the WRT610N. Laptop has no permission to access OFFICE. So I can't go to the SMALL HD on the DESKTOP via laptop.

  This is where it gets really strange.  When you back up PORTABLE HD GRAND via Norton 360, the backup fails after 832 files.  After the backup fails, laptop no longer has permision to access the BIG HD.  Laptop can no longer open WRT610N of icon in the HOME network either.  Does not have permission.  Also, if I try to click the icon for the WRT610N on the HOME network or the icon for the mapped HD BIG in my computer, the wireless signal is de-energized and resets the WRT610.  Laptop gets all rights, and permisions on WRT610N back after restarting the laptop.

  Before attempting the back upward, I made the BIG HD available via FTP and www.dyndns.com.  It worked, I could remotely to the BIG HD from other computers via internet.  Then after that the BACKUP failed, I got an email from dyndns.com saying that my host name has been blocked.  Dyndns.com, three reasons for blocking are ' updates to your client on an interval (e.g. hourly), your client is defective (e.g. flooding), you run several clients. "  I don't know why mine failed, but he did about the same time, I ran back upward.  I know that I don't have muliple customers.  It is the only host name or service or what I use with dyndns.com.  I sent without changing anything on the WRT610N, dyndns.com, asked to be unblocked, and they unlocked my hostname. Have not been blocked since then, but I have not tried a return to the top since I unlocked yesterday.

  It's the last symptom.  In my HD GRAND, all users and "S-1-5-21-789336058-329068152-725345543-5703" are listed as users.  I understand that the long alphanumeric user can be the WRT610N.  I didn't create it and I can't remove it.  I don't know if this user is on the SMALL HD.

  So, how can I get the DESKTOP on the HOME network?  How can I get the LAPTOP and the DESKTOP sharing?  How can I get the LAPTOP to save BIG HD without dropping out and having to restart the laptop (can't get a full backup now)?  This is a problem of 'property' on which device has the HOME network.  I know initially (WRT54G days) I have everything set up by the OFFICE.  It now appears that the property could be made through the WRT610N.  EVERYONE is allowed on each disc shared in the HOME network.  All drives and shared folders have different names.  All the problems occur with all security and firewalls as well off.  I already flashed the firmware and power cycled the WRT610N about 30 times over the 3 months because of the attempts to connect the two HDs at the same time.  The WRT610N seems to be stable except to drop the connection after 832 files during back upward.

  Can someone help me please?

  As you mentioned that all computers are in the same workgroup. Thing you need to check, on your desktop, open the window prompt commands and ping your IP of your laptop and check if you get all the answers, if you are getting answered, on your desktop, click Start - RUN - "\\Laptop IP" and click OK... and it will show you the folder list or the drivers that you have shared on your laptop , Just right-click on it and select 'Map network drive' and below check "Reconnect to the connection" and click Finish. It will be the card your laptop computer drivers shared on your desktop and you should be able to transfer the files from your desktop to the laptop.

  When you ping your laptop from your desktop computer are we can't get an answer, then you can try to disable the firewall and Antivirus on your computer.

  Your router has changed the MTU size to 1300 and click on save settings... That does not solve the problem even if you transfer files from your desktop / laptop computer on the NAS.

• computer Vista Home network is not visible from the XP computers

  I have a home network with 4 computers. Both run Windows XP, Windows Vista is running and
  It works in Windows 7. Each group can see all the others and can access shared files and printers

  That I need to change, but I'm not.

• XP home network problem

  The situation-

  I have a Windows XP Home Edition computer.  It relates to my internet from router box.
  He has a record of sharedocs that I access from my laptop when I use this (WiFi connection through router box).
  I had another computer - Windows XP Pro.  Connected to my router via an ethernet cable.
  I could see my folder of sharedocs and he had a "My Network Places" in the start menu.
  The second computer did some XP Pro updates via the internet link and I added a password to the administrator account
  I do not see the sharedocs on my XP Home Edition computer is a "My network places" icon on the start menu.
  What is my problem.
  Thank you
  David E.

  Old but still good advice of the MS MVP Malke networking.  See, for example, points C and d:

  For XP, start by running the Network Setup Wizard the on all machines (see warning in section A below).

  Problems sharing files between computers on a network are usually caused by 1) a misconfigured firewall or a firewall neglected (including a dynamic firewall in a virtual private network); or (2) inadvertently run two firewalls such as the firewall of Windows and a third-party firewall. and/or (3) do not have accounts to the same users and passwords on all computers in the workgroup. (4) tries to create actions where the operating system does not.

  A. configure the firewall on all machines to allow traffic to local area network (LAN) as being approved. With the Windows Firewall, it means which allows file sharing / print on the Exceptions tab normally run the XP Network Setup Wizard will take care of this for these machines. The only "witch hunt", it will turn on the XPSP2 Windows Firewall. If you are not running a third-party firewall or you have an antivirus with "Internet Worm Protection" (like Norton 2006/07) which acts as a firewall, you're fine.  With a third-party firewall, I usually set up the allocation of LAN with an IP address range. E.g. would be 192.168.1.0 - 192.168.1.254. Obviously you would substitute your correct subnet. Do not run more than one firewall. DON'T STOP FIREWALLS; CONFIGURE THEM CORRECTLY.

  (B) to facilitate the Organization, put all computers in the same workgroup. This is done from the System applet in Control Panel, the computer name tab.

  C. create the counterpart of the user accounts and passwords on all machines. You do not need to be logged into the same account on all machines and assigned to each user account passwords can be different; accounts/passwords just need to exist and to match on all machines. DO NOT NEGLECT TO CREATE PASSWORDS, EVEN IF ONLY OF SIMPLE. If you want a machine to boot directly to the desktop (a particular user account) for convenience, you can do this. The instructions on this link work for XP and Vista:

  Set up Windows to automatically connect (MVP Ramesh) - http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Autologon.htm

  D. Si one or more of the computers is XP Pro or Media Center, turn off Simple file sharing (Folder Options > view tab).

  E. create share as you wish. XP Home does not share the users directory or the Program Files, but you can share folders inside those directories. A better choice is to simply use the Shared Documents folder. See the first link above for more information on Vista sharing.

  F. you have the job of file sharing (and tested by exchanging a file between machines), if you want to share a printer connected locally to one of your computers, share of this machine. Then go to the printer mftr Web site. and download the latest drivers for the correct system. Install them on the target machines. The printer must be collected during the installation procedure. If this isn't the case, install the drivers and then use the Add Printer Wizard. In some cases, printers must be installed as local printers, but it is outside this response.

• Home network problem cannot access one of that PC even if should be able

  I ran into a problem... I have a PC running Windows Vista and Windows 7 PC on my network home. I can 'see' each from the other PC PC when I go on the network. The Windows Vista-based computer can access shared folders on the Windows 7 PC... and the Windows Vista computer can share items specially for windows 7 PC SHOULD have access to these folders. I placed the user for the Windows 7 PC as co-owner. HOWEVER, when I go to the network on the Windows 7 option, I select the Vista PC in the network thinking it should then show me the file and instead, troubleshooting network appears.

  When I go to the troubleshooter, it says that it can't find the Vista machine... even if it it displays network before I tried to access it.

  They are both in the same workgroup. I checked the machine windows 7 has permission for the folder in question indeed. and I've checked that the machine of windows Vista CAN access folders on the windows machine 7...

  No idea what I'm missing?

  Thank you!

  Hi Jim,

  1. did you change any software on the computer?

  2. where you can access files on Windows Vista earlier?

  Method 1:

  Please click on this link to find how to share files and specific folders with someone,

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/share-files-with-someone

  Method 2:

  Disable the antivirus/firewall softwareand check if it helps.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off

  NOTE: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software.

   

  Warning: If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

   

  Method 3:

  Turn off sharing protected by password:

  Password sharing is enabled by default for computers of working groups. When password sharing is enabled, people using other computers on your network cannot access your shared folders or printers unless they have a user account on your computer. There are two ways to enable file or printer sharing:

  o identical user accounts create on all computers in the workgroup (recommended). For more information, see create a user account.

  o turn off password protected sharing. To turn off password protected sharing, follow these steps:

  a. open the network and sharing Center by clicking the Start button on the Control Panel, click Network and Internet, and then click Network and sharing Center.

  b. under sharing and discovery, click the arrow next to password protected sharing.

  c. click turn off password protected sharing, and then click apply.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

   

  Please, try the following steps and check.

  I hope it works!
