Hello,
I am having a problem with networking between my Desktop PC and my Notebook PC. I've stumped 3 HP tech reps and am looking for some help. My setup is as follows:
Internet -> Modem -> D-Link DI-524.
From the Router, my Notebook connects Wirelessly and my Desktop is Wired.
Both computers have working internet access. The Desktop uses XP Pro SP2 and the Notebook has XP Home SP2. They both can see eachother on the network, and both can ping eachother whether the firewalls are up or down. I keep the firewalls down every time I try this though. The Desktop PC can see and access files on the Notebook. The Notebook can only see the Desktop and cannot access anything on it. Every time I try to access the Desktop from the Notebook I receive this error:
\\Family is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.
Login failure: the user has not been granted the requested logon type at this computer.
I have tried both the "Set up a home or small office network" and "Set up a wireless network for a home or small office" wizard. I don't what is wrong, and I thought networking was simple until this. I really don't know what I should have done/been doing to setup the network. I'm open to all help and I need all the help I can get, because two days now and I'm tired of fighting for this.
Thanks!
