Well I'm about to either uninstall windows7. Getting very annoyed with this whole network, file sharing, and print sharing. Wish I could click 2 buttons, Then poof I can print and share files. Guess not seeing that home group is Win7 Only.
Here's what I got.
Computer A(MX2):
Is running xp Pro(32Bit)
Has a working Brother MFC-240 USB Printer.
Work Groupname is: MSHOME
Connects trough the router then to the internet
Has already ran the network wizard with no issues.
Computer B(Rhaged):
Is running windows 7(64Bit)
Work Groupname is: MSHOME
Connects trough the router then to the internet
Screen shot of networking and sharing center.
Current settings (Advanced)
I can not click, view, or do anything to MX2
When I try add a Printer these come up on the list
Both seem to be the same. And its not even off the right network. (I think those are failed attempts to do printer sharing)
This is another thing thats driving me mad, There 2 ports one starts with 199, The other starts with PX32(Old computer A name). You cant remove them the error message is "The requested resource is in use"
So far both computers can see that either on exists, But neither one can access anything or share anything on either one. Been at it for 2 hours.
