Software / Networking 2 windows xp

« on: November 23, 2004, 03:53:44 PM »

HELP !!!!!!!!
I have read all the posts and checked or tried about every solution listed  without success.Let me explain.
I have 2 PC's,  A & B,  that are networked through a Linksys router. PC A runs XP Home with SP2 and B runs XP Pro without SP2. I am able to see the network Icons from either PC and access the Net with either. I have all firewalls, Antivirus, and Pop ups disabled. I am able to access PC A by using the network icon. I am able to see B's icon but unable to access it using its icon. I get that old message, "You must not have permission.....etc". I am able to see both PC's using the cmd "Net View". I am also able to access B's drive by entering " \\computername\vol 1 ©\" on the RUN line. Need some more ideas. I have been fightin gthis for weeks. Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Software / Network problem

« on: November 06, 2004, 12:02:23 PM »

Since my previous post I have additional information.

I have 2 XP PC's on a home network via a Linksys router with DSL service. Both PC's can access DSL and see each others icon with a Network prompt. PC A is running with XP Home OS+SP 2. PC B is running XP PRO without SP2. When trying to access PC A's shared files it responds with ;

"You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permission. Access is denied".

Yet when I type in the drive and file name on the RUN line I am able to access
shared files. Why can I access shared files this way and not by selecting the
network PC's Icon in Network places? A help is much appreciated. Thanks.

Software / Home network

« on: November 03, 2004, 10:01:29 AM »

I have 2 XP PC's on a home network via a Linksys router with DSL service. Both PC's can access DSL and see each others icon with a Network prompt. PC A is running with XP Home OS+SP 2. PC B is running XP PRO without SP2. When trying to access PC A's shared files it responds with ;

"You  might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permission. Access is denied".

PC B can see and access PC A's shared disk. This network was working properly prior to downloading SP2 but I can honestly say that caused my problem. All firewalls and Zon Alarm are disabled. Have read and tried all related fixes to other posts with similar problem on this forum. I am at loss as to the problem ??
Appreciate any help I can get. Thanks
