Windows Vista 64-bit pc can see Win7 Starter PC but not Win 7 Home Premium PC

We have a network of 3 computers:

(1) a desktop PC with Vista 64-bit with all service packs and patches.
(2) a netbook with Win7 Starter with all service packs and patches.
(3) a netbook with Win7 Home Premium with all service packs and patches.
Note, the only difference between the 2 and 3 is the version of Win7 - otherwise, the machines are identical.
Our network consists of a wired router / wireless connected to a hub for wired connections. Computer 1 connect cable, computers, 2, and 3 usually wireless (even if this problem occurs when you use a wired connection too).
All computers are in the same workgroup.
Homegroup is set to 2 or 3.
All computers have an account protected by login created although not necessarily the same account/password combination.
All computers have discovered network, files and printers, sharing, file sharing turned Public and password protected sharing turned off.
Computer 1 peut see 2 on the network and the shared access computer files.
Computer 1 cannot see computer 3 on the network.
Computer 1 peut ping to the IP address of computer 3.
Computer 3 peut see 1 and 2 on the network computer and access shared files.
Computer 2 peut see 1 and 3 on the network computer and access shared files.
So - any ideas? It drives me crazy.

Hello

I suggest you to follow these steps and check if that helps:
Method 1:
If you have installed a security software on the computer, then I suggest you try to disable temporary and check to see if the same problem happens. Make sure that you enable security software back once the diagnosis is made to prevent the computer from virus attacks.

Method 2:
Try to perform the clean boot and check if it helps:

NOTE: When you are finished troubleshooting, make sure that you reset the computer in start mode normal such as suggested in step 7 of the above article.

It will be useful.

    Hello

    You can change some values in the registry. To do this, copy / paste the following text in Notepad, save it as a MP3WAVRecent.reg file and double-click this file to add it to the registry database:

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11. AssocFile.MP3]
    "EditFlags" = hex: 00, 00, 01, 00

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11. AssocFile.WAV]
    "EditFlags" = hex: 00, 00, 01, 00

    Note that plus save recently used for the Jumplist instead of frequently used must be checked in the Options of WMP - player, as well as the music at the bottom of life private tab.
    Note: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

    are you referring to the windows experience index?

    If so this number is determined by the material that uses your computer

    Make sure you have the latest vista drivers for your computer which you can get your computer manufacturers Web site

    go to their website and look for a driver and software download section

    Enter your model number for the last look drivers vista then download and install

    If that improves not there you need to upgrade the hardware: map graphic or RAM

    the total number is determined by the lowest number of material

  • After reinstall Window Vista 32 bit, I can't move the slider to increase the resolution of the screen, how do I solve this problem

    My Dell Inspiron 530 sudenlly crashed, I could not start it. I called for the support of a group that I paid for. Technicians helped me start the PC, but they could not fix the screen resolution: in the display settings window, the cursor is on the left end of the bar, the low position and could not be moved. The technician finally asked me to save the folders files and reinstall Windows Vista. After the relocation, the screen resolution problem persisted. Technicians then reformat the HD, then reinstall Windows Vista again, the result was the same. We cannot change the resolution. Help, please.

  • How can I disable Group Policy Service in Win 7 Home Premium 64 - bit SP1 on my computer at home?

    I'm not able to disable the Group Policy Manager (even if my user ID has administrator privileges)

    In other words, when I click on the box next to the service in MSCONFIG

    the audit go far - but as soon as I hit the key "Apply", the control is displayed again.

    I also went directly in 'Services '. Once there, I went to the "group policy".

    '' 'Manager' again. I went into the service and concluded that the selection for "Startup Type" was

    gray - it has failed me the ability to change from "Automatic" to "off."

    nor could I stop it.

    I tried to locate the Group Policy Client gpsvc entry in the registry and by assigning to my user name according to the instructions on:

    http://everydaynerd.com/how-to/disable-group-policy-service-on-windows-vista7 - but I couldn't find the HKLM key or the

    gpsvc entry in my registry (so I'm not clear on how/where it is getting kicked off the power, but he began is, since I can see running in the Task Manager / Services tab).
    I also tried to add the DWORD of DisableGPS entry and parameter to a value of '1' - but it does not work either - service group strategy continues to run after I refill...
    Other thoughts on how I can get this service disabled?

    Sorry, I am unable to reconcile the two contradictory facts in your report: you have a service of group running on the one hand policy, but no corresponding entry in the registry. I have no idea how to solve this problem.

    On machines without the Group Policy snap-in you must change the registry manually with the help of clues, you get the spreadsheet of Group Policy download you here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=18c90c80-8b0a-4906-a4f5-ff24cc2030fb#filelist.

  • I can see that made me, but not in number on my iphone

    When I get a call from a contact of mine that has a lot of numbers, I see that they called me, but I can see is no longer what number they used to call me. It is very useful information and we used to be able to access the list recently called the number, they used for their outgoing call should be highlighted in blue. Since the last update ios that is is no longer the case. Why is this? It's a very useful feature!

    I agree that this is a useful feature. However, the recent you gives the label of the called number, so if you have different labels for each number in a contact entry you can always find out what number called you.

  • Wireless devices can see the wireless network but not connect

    Can someone please help?  I have a WRT54GS v2.  My wired computer accesses the Net fine, and I can see MAC address, IP address, DNS, subnet mask, default gateway in the navigation of the linksys software. The devices can see the network with strong bars but can't connect.

    Help!

    Thank you

    Yes, I tried all of these suggestions before posting and thank you for the reply.  I even called Comcast, my cable provider, in despair attempt to resolve.  Of course, they were no help, but it didn't end up being a problem, with what they should have helped me.

    By simple trial and error for several hours, I discovered that the domain name required to be filled in the first Panel of the router Linksys software.  The domain name resulted in the status panel but needed to be included in the initial group.  The forums I read had informed that some cable companies require the name of the computer and the domain name is filled and others not.  Obviously, if Comcast domain name must be filled out, but not the name of the computer.

    I guess that the other two computers are working properly and that it can network together and that the only problem is the XP machine.  I'm also assuming that this problem persists when the firewall was disabled (including hidden like the one in the Cisco VPN client).  I also assume you mean by "is no longer connect to my home network" that you can't see other computers in your network neighborhood. See if this article helps you:

    You can borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.
