Guys, I've recently changed my home computer over from WinXP to Win7. On my WinXP system, I had a permanently mapped drive to my "My Documents" directory on my work laptop (WinXP Pro). Once I had plugged my laptop into my home network (and powered it up of course), all I would need to do on my...

I never noticed this until today when I went to add more space to the Windows 7 drive on my disk. Even though I had Windows XP and then installed Windows 7 my computer shows Windows 7 as Drive C and Windows XP as Drive D. I have no idea how this occurred since i presumed Windows 7 would auto...

Just upgraded to Win 7 Pro. Have an HP desktop on a wired network. Attached to the router via an ethernet cable, is an Iomega Home Media Network Hard Drive. The software for the NAS creates six network drives that are mapped to my computer. When I open "Computer" they show up under...

I finally got my NAS mapped to my Win7 machine and when the PC goes into Power Saver (Sleep Mode) it loses the drive mapping. Logging off and back on does not seem to restore the mapping, only restarting. Also Win 7 doesn't see the other WinXP machines on the network? I have gone through the...

I KNOW this is going to be dumb as soon as somebody tells me what it is, but: Windows 7 64-bit system. I want to be able to work with files in a regular directory on a Windows 7 disk from a Windows XP Pro laptop. I made the W7 disk sharable, and gave everyone full access. On the xp system I...

Hullo, I'm new here. I've got an interesting problem, I've never encountered anything like this before. I recently installed the RC 7600 x64 and I run two machines, the other with Windows Server 2003. I use the second machine to map drives to the other machines on the network (ie. the machine...

Is there a way to script the verification, creation, and deletion of Windows 7 libraries, using any script engine which will run as a login script? For 7 desktops in AD, I would much rather use libraries than mapped drives, if possible. J.E.B.
