Windows 7 no longer access from XP 64 on computers with 7

[angel8888]

When a network connecting two Windows 7 64-bit among themselves, can no longer access from XP 64 on these computers.

If I do not go with Windows 7 at the second similar Windows 7, the network and access between XP and 7 is wonderful. As soon as there is a connection between two windows 7 based computers - XP does not have the right to access to them. But windows 7 computers at the same time have access to computers with windows xp

Only helps break the link between windows 7 based computers and reboot ...


Please!!!!!!!!!! Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It seems like you are experiencing network connectivity issues when trying to connect Windows 7 64-bit computers with an XP 64-bit computer. The problem you described indicates that when two Windows 7 computers are connected to each other, the Windows XP computer loses connectivity to them. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve this network connectivity issue:

1. Check Network Discovery and File Sharing Settings:​

• Ensure that Network Discovery and File Sharing are enabled on all computers.
  • Go to "Control Panel" > "Network and Sharing Center" > "Change advanced sharing settings" and make sure Network Discovery and File and Printer Sharing are turned on.

    2. Check Workgroup Settings:​

  []Confirm that all computers are on the same Workgroup:
  • Right-click on "Computer" > "Properties" > "Advanced system settings" > "Computer Name" tab.
  • Make sure the Workgroup name is the same on all computers.

    3. Check Firewall Settings:​

  []Disable the firewall temporarily to see if it's causing the issue. If disabling the firewall resolves the problem, you will need to create an exception for file and printer sharing.

  4. Ensure Proper Permissions:​

  []Check the shared folder permissions on each computer to make sure the XP computer has the correct permissions to access shared folders on the Windows 7 computers.

  5. Reset Winsock:​

  []Reset the Winsock catalog on each Windows 7 computer:
  • Open Command Prompt as an administrator and type: netsh winsock reset.
  • Restart the computer after running the command.

    6. Update Network Drivers:​

• Make sure that network drivers on all computers are up to date. Outdated drivers can sometimes cause network issues.

  Summary:​

  By following these steps, you may be able to resolve the network connectivity issue between your Windows 7 and Windows XP computers. If the issue persists, further troubleshooting such as checking event logs for error messages or running network diagnostics may be necessary. Let me know if you need more assistance or if you encounter any specific error messages during troubleshooting.
