Networking Questions
I have a home network set up (I am a bit new to
networking) and everything is working but I have a question. I have certain folders shared with the "downstairs" computer and certain folders shared with the "upstairs" computer. The downstairs computer is running WinXP HE with 1 G of DDR RAM and the upstairs computer is running WinME with 512 M of SDRAM memory. The issues is this: I can see and have access to the upstairs computer from the downstairs computer and I can see but NOT have access to the downstairs computer from the upstairs computer...it says that there is not enough memory. Is this truly the case or are there just limitation with WinME that do not exist with WinXP HE?...or maybe I just have something configured wrong. Before I go out and buy more SDRAM memory or I upgrade WinME to WinXP HE...I would like know for sure, if possible, which it is...Thanks for any advice you can provide... BTW...here is what I have... OK...like a say, I am a bit new to this...what I have on the XP computer is: Client for MS Networks Eacfit Driver File and Packet Sharing for MS Networks QoS Packet Internet Protocal What I have on the ME computer is: Client for MS Networks LPR for TCP/IP printing 802.11g Wirless PCI card Dial-up adpater TCP/IP - 802.11g PCI Card TCP/IP - Dial Up Adapter File and Print Sharing for MS Networks CP |

Perhaps I need to restate the issue...I can see the ME machine from the XP
machine with no problem, but I cannot see the XP machine from the ME machine (will actually I can see it but it says that there is not enough memory to open the folder)...so it would appear that the issue lies with the ME machine...your link below take me to a procedure for the XP machine...is this correct? Since there is not a registry entry in ME (without adding a couple of layers) but there is such a registry entry in XP...I am confused. Does the problem lie with the XP machine or with the ME machine??? THANKS CP "CP" wrote in message ... Does this apply to WinXP HE or Win ME??? CP "Richard G. Harper" wrote in message ...

The problem is with the HOST computer - the one that you're trying to get
to. It is not a problem with the GUEST computer - the one that you're seeing the error message on. -- Richard G.
