Recently upgraded one machine on our small office network to 7 in order to learn the product. All other transition went smoothly and impressed with increase in speed and ease of use for the average user.
Stats are:
Dell Dimension E520
Dual Core 1.8GHz
2GB Ram
Windows 7 Ultimate
PC is wiredAll other machines on network are XP or NAS drives
I've had trouble accessing XP machines on the network so after searching the forum I've already worked on these items I've seen mentioned:
MDNSresponder is not running
No weird strings or Bonjour in Services
Computer browser and tcp/ip netbios helper services are started and on automatic
Ipv4 has netbios over tcp/ip selected
Ipv6 has been disabled
Flushed DNS and netbios cache
However, I still cannot browse any XP machine or NAS drive on our network. I can ping, both the IP address and server name, but none show up in browse network area. I have also tried to map network drives manually, using the syntax from the successful ping and it still can't access.
Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated.
