[Problem] - Windows 7 ask for password if I access a Windows XP comput
Well there are 2 PC in my LAN:
- NB
- Notebook
- WiFi connection to my router NETGEAR DGN2200v3
- Windows 7 Professional x64 SP1
- DSK
- Desktop
- Cabled connection to my router NETGEAR DGN2200V3
- Windows XP Home Edition 32bit SP3
If from DSK I try to access NB shared folders through network, everything is fine.
If from NB I try to access DSK shared folders through network, the following window appears:
The strange thing is that this problem seems to occur randomly! Sometimes it occurs, sometimes not (during the same session of usage of NB). This is annoying because usually I need to work with NB on files which are stored in DSK through local network, so if I need to apply a change to a file, sometimes I won't have a chance to do that.
Some minutes ago I configured DSK and NB so that the account for both has the same username and password.
When on NB I try to access DSK shared folders, the window I posted above appears, I fill the data but neither this time I have granted access...
This is what happens:
- I reset NB WiFi connection
- Using NB I try to access DSK shared folders --> everything is ok
- About 5 minutes passes
- Using NB I try to access DSK shared folders --> the authentication window appears, I fill the username and password fields but they won't be recognized
I need to work on DSK files directly from NB through my local network, so it is very annoying to reset my WiFi connection every 5 minutes... Just I don't know what the solution to this problem could be.
