One of those desktop is used without keyboard or screen, just has a small server for storage and sharing printers Lexmark Series and Xerox Phaser series all installed on that desktop running XP Home SP2 Everything was working perfectly when all computer where running on XP, but since my 2 notebooks are on Vista it's been a pain.

Thank You very much! Monday, April 16, PM. Were you able to solve ths probem,because I have the same one. Saturday, May 5, PM. Sitges 0. Yes, please. I have the same problem. By BajiRav , August 15, in Windows. I can connect to the Public share on Vista from the XP host. Once I enter that, I can connect just fine. But after few days, I start getting errors on XP side that I don't have permission to connect to the same Vista share.

I don't even get the credentials prompt. All it does is allow vista to put xp machines on its useless network map. Nothing MORE!! Please do not spread nonsense. Thats right Link Layer Topology Discovery Responder has nothing to do with why XP wont connect to Vista shares, although it was funny that it was mentioned. When trying to connect you'll be presented with a login dialogue, make sure you enter the correct credentials otherwise you'll be contantly presented with the login dialogue.

Make sure XP and Vista have account passwords they do. One your hard drives set relevent permissions not a factor as it works. The sharing starts working again once I restarted the "server" and dependent computer browser service on Vista.

Vista has a tendancy to drop netowork connections i constantly have to reboot either my XP and Vista computers for network sharing to work. Regardless if you have a server system or if it on a domain you can still be presented with the same problem.

As to why his file share is dying - I am not sure.. How are you accessing it, browsing to the share using NN, a map to a drive letter? Are any of the machines being turned on or off, standby, etc.

Are you using offline folders in XP? I am normally not active on forums, but I just want to say Thank You!! It worked. I too have been pulling my hair out over this issue and I hope that this solves it. What is paricularly bothersome to me is that I have been able to acces the printer from the vista machines when it was attached to an older XP box running home addition.

The Vista machines have always been able to access the XP home machines even when the vista drivers were not available. Sharing works fine other than that and I could share it without the drivers to 2 Vista laptops when attached to the old XP box or laptop. I have uninstalled, reinstalled changed protocalls bindngs etc to no avial and was wondering if it was an AMD thing.

I have spent days reading articles and forums while trying to run my business as well. So I Just cannot thank you enough for htis. Thanks Again Matt Z. Thanks for the help. I used the directions given and used the Photosmart driver which comes with Vista. It works great. Thanks again. I have wireless printing to the photosmart This solved it perfectly for the exact same problem occuring for my combination of Win XP Pro computer as print server and my Win XP x64 client.

I'm in a dorm room with 4 guys and we have an extra old laptop with XP sharing the printer. Only the guy with XP could print while the other the three of us with vista had no luck, our computers would freeze up but now it works! Why was it so hard to find this one little post?

It would help so many people! Click on add to add a user. Then type in guest in the textbox that says Enter the object names to select. Highlight the guest account and give it the relevant permissions. Full control, Change or Read. This is how simple file sharing worked between Windows XP computers , and now you can have it enabled for Vista too! My name is Milica Pantic but everyone calls me Mitz.
