Vista Forums - View Single Post - With a Fresh Boot Vista Will Not See Network Shares

08-08-2007

That probably doesn't work - the XP on our network simply disappears off the
network every time it 'sleeps' or even starts up the screen saver, let alone
when you reboot. Sometimes it seems to disappear for no reason whatsoever.

ANY change to anything seems to upset the delicate balance of a Vista
network. An update comes in, things disappear off the network. Reboot one of
the computers, ditto. Open the wrong program at the wrong time, same result.
Look at it sideways and it has a tantrum and won't work.

Vista networking is simply crap and MS don't give a @#$^ about producing
quality products for their customers.
