<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
So i have a small peer to peer network, 5 computers - 1 Win XP Pro/4 Win 7 Pro. For some reason, the Win XP computer stopped communicating with the other computers. Here's what I've tested so far.<br />
<br />
The Win XP computer cannot ping any of the other computers, and the other computers cannot ping the Win XP. <br />
The computer is remotely accessible via logmein, and can get online, so i think I've eliminated the network card/cable.<br />
The other 4 Win 7 computers can communicate with each other.<br />
Windows firewall is disabled.<br />
I found a reg key that supposedly helps or corrects these issues on Win XP computers.<br />
I've also disabled the antivirus software.<br />
I updated the drivers on the network card.<br />
And yes, i rebooted. :)<br />
<br />
The interesting thing is, i was out of ideas, so i ran a winsock reset, rebooted, and i was able to see the network! THEN, i rebooted again, and it was back to the way it was, nothing. Again, this was working fine as of 2 days ago.<br />
<br />
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Windows XP computer not able to access shares, or communicate with 4 Win 7 Pro computers on same network.

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.

Windows 7 is an operating system from Microsoft. Features include multi-touch support, a redesigned Windows Shell with a new taskbar, referred to as the Superbar, a home networking system called HomeGroup, and performance improvements.

Windows 7

The Windows operating systems have distinct methodologies for designing and implementing networks, and have specific systems to accomplish various networking processes, such as Exchange for email, Sharepoint for shared files and programs, and IIS for delivery of web pages. Microsoft also produces server technologies for networked database use, security and virtualization.
