networking ME to win 7 via router
"Mike M" wrote in message ... Noel Paton wrote: You need to set up the Win7 machine user with a password - then you can use that username and password to log in from the ME machine. Alternatively, you can go into the Network & Sharing page in Win 7, and switch off password-protected sharing. HTH - post back if you need blow-by-blow instructions Noel, Can a Win Me PC access a network share on a PC running Win 7? Win 7 can easily access shares on a Win Me machine but the reverse is more difficult. -- Mike AFAIK, there shouldn't be any problem with the Win 7 machine getting into the the ME machine - but as you say, getting the ME machine into Win 7 may be more problematic. Unfortunately, I no longer have a hardware 9x machine to play with (and VM's don't count), but I'm sure I could share between Vista and ME back during the Beta. Things may have changed for Win 7..... Struggling in my archive to find any references for WIn98/W7 networking. - nope, nothing I may set up a couple of machines to play with - just for the giggles - but it'd take a few days. -- Noel Paton CrashFixPC Nil Carborundum Illegitemi www.crashfixpc.co.uk |
