| | Vista Home Premium cannot see mmy XP Pro SP3 machines... I can Ping my XP Pro PCs, but Vista will not show them from Start>Network. They are all on the same IP segment. They are all members of the same workgroup. I have SP3 on XP Pro Pcs - so LLTP KB fix will not install (it must have been included in SP3 - I guess). The XP Pro PCs can ping the Vista Home Premium PC, but not see any shares on it. The Vista Home Premium PC cannot see the XP Pro PCS when using their names and trying to map a drive. The same goes for the XP PCs - they can't see the VHP machine by name, but can ping it via IP. I have set and reset the sharing options in Vista over and over and cannot figure out this problem. Can anyone help? |
