Why is it always such a hassle to be able to share files across a LAN
4 Computers on a Local Lan.
A) BLACKDOG running VISTA X-64
B) REDFOX running W7 X-64 (test machine)
C) BROWNBEAR Running XP Sp3.
D) BLUEBOAR running W7 X-32
Workgroup name JIMSVPN
ALL FIREWALLS and AV software switched off.
All members of same workgroup with file and printer sharing enabled. Network discovery turned on.
No duplicate computer names or "Duplicate IP addresses".
Computer A) the Vista machine can see and access everything on computers B) ,C) and D)
Computer C) the XP machine can see and access everything on computers A), B), and D)
Computer D) the W7 X-32 machine can see and access everything on computers A), B) and C).
Computer B) the W7 X-64 machine can see computers A), C), and D) but can't access anything on them
Get message for example Windows Cannot access Link Removed Error code 0x0070035 Network path is not found
or Windows cannot access Link Removed error code as before
Of course the stupid Diagnostics can't find anything.
I can Ping computers A), C) and D)
I can even RDP computers A) and D) from computer C).
HELP -- any ideas here -- I've even switched network adapters around (Wireless / PC express / USP==>Lan just to eliminate any problems with the LAN card).
Networking shouldn't be this difficult for a simple home LAN.
Any ideas anyone.
Cheers
