The Homegroup on my new Win 7 laptop and existing PC works fine, but only after I've been through the Homegroup troubleshooter to refresh the network. After either the PC or laptop is turned off (and then on again, obviously!), I have to go through the troubleshooter again before the Homegroup...

I am hoping that someone else may have run into this problem and found a solution. I have a AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter installed in my Asus Eee PC. Whenever I wake up the computer from hibernate or sleep, the wireless adapter takes a full minute or more before it will actually connect to a...

If your wondering why, its inconvenient to image drives across multiple computers because the only thing different about them is windows key, and if your restoring drives constantly it can be a real pain. So whats microsofts stance on this, if i have a valid licenses x computers can i just use a...
