Hello,

I´m trying to configure a Home Group between a desktop W7 64 Ultimate and a laptop W7 64 Home Premium.

Reading the forums and MS instructions didn´t do, so I did an ipconfig /all on both.

In the desktop Netbios is not active, but client for MS network is checked in the adaptor, file and printer sharing also in the adapter.

Services show TCP Netbios as automatic.

Firewall is AVG, desabling it didn´t help.

From the desktop I can see the laptop, but from the laptop I can´t see the desktop in the network map.

Thanks for your help,
