Re: Gah! Win XP/Vista Networking Problems

Home is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network

access permissions.

The network path was not found.


The only other PC is a Vista Home Premium Laptop on Wireless. Any ideas on
where I can start? Both PCs have the Firewall turned off.

Mike:

Is your <CapsLock> key on? Tried <CtrlAltDel>? Hmmm... Did you run Windows Update manually?

If those are all okay, try it after rebooting. If that doesn't work, try restoring from your backup server. If that doesn't work, see if reinstalling fixes it.

Sorry. That exhausts my help.

(I'd add a [smiley] but I'm not sure if I'm kidding!)
