    Hello

    Did you change your computer?

    This problem occurs if the (LLTD) link layer topology discovery Responder component is not installed on the Windows XP computer.

    Network card in Windows Vista makes network diagrams of connections between network devices that can be used to troubleshoot connectivity issues. Network map uses a discovery protocol called Link-Layer Topology LLTD (Discovery) that queries other devices on the network to determine how the network is organized.

    Windows Vista includes the software components that implement the LLTD protocol. For other devices on the network to display on the map, they must activate a discovery protocol that can meet the demands of mapping from the Windows Vista-based computer.

    I suggest you to install the update on windows XP.

  • Transfer of data/programs of a XP computer to a Windows 7 using a network.

    I have the device to a network installed, router and modem as a result of service U-verse AT & T. I bought a new computer with Windows 7 installed.  I still have my old Windows XP computer that is connected to the gateway router.  When I read the request for the use of the network to transfer data it says to connect both computers to the router (what I do) and start both computers as an administrator user.  Checking the list of XP users I find 3 possibilities. An administrator myself (listed as an administrator on the computer and a guest, but that account is disabled.)

    My question.  If I start the XP computer I used to do now the choice for the user is given.  She simply starts the system.  Can I assume that I have 'administrator' if I use the network transfer function.  I have the transfer on the new machine program and I downloaded a copy of my XP machine but I don't the have not installed.  BTW, the new machine is not yet there but is by the end of the week.

    Would appreciate some guidance, specifically the question on an administrator on both machines.  Data guidance will be appreciated.

    Don Jacobs

    Windows XP and later versions of Windows have 3 types of accounts: a built-in account named Administrator (unless someone has changed the name), the computer administrator and standard or limited user.

    In Windows XP, the built-in administrator is not usually displayed on the screen of welcome except Mode without failure.  In Windows Vista and later versions, the built-in administrator is disabled by default.

    The "Guest" account is not relevant to this discussion.  You should leave it as what.

    If there is that a single user account set up on a XP system, and if you have not created a password for this account, Windows will start at your desk without display the Welcome screen.  Alternatively, you can configure Windows to do this even if you have created a password.

    If your account on the XP computer appears as "computer administrator" in the control panel > users, then use this account to make the transfer.  Another way to check is to click the Start button.  If you see "Open All Users" and "Explore all users" as two of the choices, then you are logged in as "administrator of the computer.

    On your new Windows 7 system, the first user created account will be a "computer administrator".  It is a "best practice" to create a "standard user" account to use for routine use and save the administrator account on the computer only for emergency purposes.  Create at least a password for the administrator account on the computer.

    Here some good advice - you should follow - the former MS MVP Malke:

    General recommendations for creating users in Windows 7:

    You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. Like XP, Vista and all the other modern operating systems, Windows 7 is a multi-user system with integrated system of accounts as default Administrator and comments. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

    In particular, you do not want account only one user with administrator privileges in Windows 7 because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult. It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but there may be more that you want to do. Better not to put you in a bad situation at first.

    The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. As a user Standard is recommended for security reasons and will help protect your computer against infections. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

    If you want to go directly to the desktop and ignore the Welcome screen with the icons of the user accounts, you can do this:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
    Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

    Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).

  • Upgrading a network to Windows Vista to Windows 7 computer

    I have a home network (XP based) which works very well for years.  Three computers, two printers, and all worked very well together.  It's just my wife and me, and network security has never been a high priority.  Now, I want to add new computers to the system, one is a Dell with Windows Vista laptop. and it is a HP with Windows 7.  I followed the Network Wizard I used before creating the network; I created a file and was walking and it ran on all of the old and new computers.  The two XP machines can still talk to each other fine, the Vista machine can see two XP machines - but the machines XP get a window "permission error" when trying to access the Vista and WIndows 7 machine is on an island, he sees not all computers and all computers get a login screen before you can access the Windows 7 machine; even if we have no password on the Windows 7 computer.  As I said - it's just my wife and me, and we have no password or sign ins on all machines and would like to keep this simplicity.  FYI - all thte computers can access the internet fine and all use the same router to do.  Please tell us how can I better return to the situation that I had before where I could sit to one count; access to all the others, without a bunch of security and authorization issues.

    Hello

    If there is no consideration of security, you can activate the account invited on all computers and configure the authorization for it.

    Problems of permission and security with Vista/Win7, check the following settings.

    All the users who are allowed to share need to have an account on all computers that they are allowed to connect to.

    Everyone is an account, that means a group of all users who already have an account now as users.

    Using the functionality of all saved the need to configure authorization for each of theestablished users, it does mean not all those who feel that they would like to connect.

    Users who do not have an account on the computer are not part of the Everyone group.

    If the LAN security is useless and users are not established, then move on the guest account provides the semi-open configuration.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/turn-the-guest-account-on-or-off

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

    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.

  • All network devices can see each other + Windows 7 computer, but machine Windows 7 can not see them

    Hello. Under the network of my machine Windows 8 folder, I can see all the devices on the network. This includes a printer, my computer Windows 7 (what I can access), an Apple TV (from special software), a wireless hard drive, the router and a digital recorder.

    The Windows 7 machine, I can only see the router and the printer. On special software, the Apple TV does not either. When you perform the Windows 8 computer host as a server for the special software, the Windows 7 machine could not see it on the special software. This means that there is something wrong on the Windows 7 this machine is not allowing him to detect other devices.

    In a game of LAN, Windows 7 and Windows 8 computers can't see each other.

  • Networking Windows 7 and a Windows 98 computer

    Since the update to my Windows Vista computer to Windows 7, I can no longer communicate with an old Windows 98 computer I connected. I've assigned and IP for the Windows 98 computer and I've added to the list of networks on my Security Center Firewall (McAfee), as has been suggested as a possible solution.  It did not work.

    I need to be able to have the old Windows 98 computer on my home network for what one might consider a stupid reason (I've got an older scanner on this computer and large enough files that create scanners are also difficult to transfer to the new computer.  The new scanner has stopped working after only a year and a half because of what HP calls irreparable electronic failure, so I use the old scanner on a Windows 98 computer for which the software was never updated for XP/Vista/7.

    The Windows 7 computer see the network connection, but that is as far as things go. How can I get Windows 7 and Windows 98 computers to see and talk to each other?

    alanr

    Short answer: can not be done. You can access shared folders in Win98 to Windows 7 computer, but not the reverse. Scan on, one after the other using file transfer. You cannot use a Windows 7 Homegroup to connect this way, you must use the standard file sharing and printers (as in the working groups). Create an account on the Windows 98 computer that has the same user name and password for an account on the Windows 7 computer. Set up as usual on the Windows 98 file sharing computer and assign it to the same workgroup name that the Windows 7 computer use. It should then appear in a Windows 7 network and allow you to access shared folders Win98. You can see the computer Windows 7 from Windows 98, but you will not be able to access.
    All confirmed as true, but - WHY?

    Windows 7 keeps shoving homegroup into my face, as if all of the computers on the planet he runs.
    This is the notion of a network is damaged. The idea of a network is to share resources.
    After the days of violin which he inserted - PC after the name, I gave him, used for the first HOUSE as my location, then lost, has created a homegroup, when I never requseted it. Or simply behaving badly HURT.
    I was finally able to get the computer to windows 7 in the same workgroup as my other computers.
    It STILL shows it as connetion: internet! Stupid _...
    And now when I try to access is no longer an error, but asks for a password.
    My normal response to this is (Hit Enter Key - i.e. 'none' on well behaved systems.)
    I wonder what Windows 7 by default?
    No matter, the machine and the operating system will return to the store.

  • My Windows 7 computer will not find the networks wireless after a system restore.

    My Windows 7 computer is not find wireless networks after I did a system restore. It was perfectly good wifi before the system restore and other members of my family have a great connection except me is not a problem with my router. I think I know what the problem is, but I just don't know how to fix it. So there you go. I did my restore system about 2 days after that we moved on the provider of internet/tv "Comcast" to the tv/internet provider "Verizon". what I think has happened, is that I restored my computer to the point when we had no Verizon so that he could not find the network. Now, since we have Comcast it won't identify this network either, so maybe some of you out there could help me. : D
