Win7 and Vista not playing nice.
Alright I have a brand new Gateway laptop with windows 7. I have a Desktop pc with Windows Vista. I need copy the music folder from the vista machine to the 7 machine.
I have the laptop connected wirelessly to the network. The desktop is a wired connection.
Both computers see each other on the network.
I cannot access any shared files across the network.
I have opened up the network as much as windows will let me. I have disabled all firewalls and AV software. I have tried pinging both machines the vista machine gets no response from the win7 machine. The win 7 machine gets a response from the vista machine.
How do I get both machines to talk to each other, so I can transfer files.
I am going to try doing this from my linux partition as most things usually work from there. I know the great debate between win and linux, don't want an opinion on it. The simple fact is I use both and am happy.
