xp mode cannot see network drives
Posted on 2013-01-04
I have a Windows7 machine on a Server2008 domain which has a legacy application requiring XP mode. The program requires access to resources on a network drive, however, XP mode does not see network drives, and I am unable to add it to the domain. What might the problem and resolution be?
