Software / Networking 2 windows xp
« on: February 28, 2006, 02:57:08 AM »
After installing some Windows XP updates, my home network mysteriously stopped working, and I got the message "You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. The network path was not found."
I spent hours and hours on this and tried everything in these forums with no luck. A tech guy at my job was kind enough to help me with this issue. His advice:
With all computers on the network turned on, follow these steps on each computer.
1. Go to Start/ All Programs / Accessories /Command Prompt
2. Type ipconfig /flushdns and hit Enter. (ipconfig [space] /flushdns)
3. Type ipconfig /registerdns and hit Enter. (ipconfig [space] /registerdns)
Now, try viewing workgroup computers and accessing each. (Start/ My Newtwork Places/ View Workgroup Computers)
I hope this works for you, too! If not, try the advice from the previous threads (which I did), and then try this again.
