I have two Windows 7 Home Premium machines on the same network, and in the same workgroup for the benefit of an XP machine. For the moment, though, only the Win 7 machines are important. I do not have a homegroup set up at the moment (doing so does not change anything.) For the purpose of this...

I have reset firewall settings to default on all three computers. Win7 Pro only sees other Win7 PCs and not a router-shared drive nor the XP, and yet the Win7 Starter and Win7 Home both do. All have same workgroup name. Any suggestions on how to remedy this would be greatly appreciated. Thank...

So I've seen a couple threads about this already, but no solutions have worked for me or the person who started the thread had a slightly different problem. Basically, for a while now, maybe 3-5 months, every 5-10 hours, my internet fully shuts off, and I get the exclamation mark sign over my...

I have a Acer Aspire M5100-u5300a and I made the decision to get rid of Windows CRAPsta. I went with Win7 x64 Pro. I know that I should've run the upgrade advisor but I was sure it could handle it. Well I installed 7 and in the device manager there are no conflicts, but I have a couple of...

I have posted on several forums, followed 100s of 'tips', but nothing works! Briefly: Technisat media player can share files on Vista, Android Samba, linux-based NAS without user verification but fails to access Win7 shares with a user/password login failure (although the share is available...

I know this has been posted about before, but I've read through all the old threads about this and just can't find any solution that has worked for me. Whenever a computer with windows 7 tries to connect wireless to my router it will be connected, but have no internet access, and will be...

My AppData folder is about 1.7 Gb and has the usual three subfolders (Local, LocalLow and Roaming). I sometimes copy the whole or part of it for backup reasons. However, I cannot do so now because when I try to take a copy, it says the move will be only 345MB, and that is what it copies...

I have a PC running XP with a Western Digital My Book external drive connected to it. My laptop running Windows 7 (and my daughter's netbook running Vista) can no longer access the WD hard drive. The rest of my network works fine (all three computers have internet access and can access the...

All of my computers at work are on a domain controlled by a SBS 2003 Server except for an old Windows 2000 Server that I have printers attached to it that the network uses. All of the windows 2000 computers and XP can access the printers and drive on this machine outside of the domain but the...

I am at a State U and want to create a temporary directory, say, C:\Users\temp, that can be used by multiple students that authenticate through a domain. A trivial task in Linux but are there other ramifications in windows 7? I have found %temp% is C:\Users\staff\AppData\Local\Temp. Would...

Hi all, I solved my own problem but I thought that I would post the solution here. I did not see anything on the net for the issue I was having but I am sure it comes up from time to time. I accidentally created a shortcut inside a folder to itself. I was clicking on the file path at the top...
