Can you ping server from the client?

i'm able to cross ping both systems with IP address, but not able to ping with name of computer.
Lets say server's IP is 192.168.1.10. You cannot ping server but you can ping 192.168.1.10, both from the XP client. You cannot run \\server. What happens if you run \\192.168.1.10?
There is some difference (in the TCP/IP settings) between the working clients and the problematic XP client.

when run with \\192.168.1.10 getting same error. ya i have configured same setting between the working clients and the problematic XP client. still gives trouble

ASKER

my server ip address is 192.168.1.52 and XP SP3 Client IP is 192.168.1.97
OK. So just to be sure: you tried to run \\192.168.1.52 from the XP client, right?
Does the 7's Windows Application/Security/System Logs show any Warnings/Errors that might help?

In windows 7 System Logs shows in one particular error message.

"The server was unable to allocate from the system nonpaged pool because the server reached the configured limit for nonpaged pool allocations."

Event ID is 2017.
I don't think the error you reported is related to your issue.
The XP client doesn't show anything useful in it's Logs (again, Application/Security/System)?

its worked for me
The registry changes definitely worked for me.

Made the changes and then restarted the Windows 7 connecting server and WinXP client.

Is there maybe a link that explains the registry keys and why they would be affected after some time?

Thank you for the solution  2gainknowledge and strivoli
