1165423	2010-12-29 06:38:00	Why can my netbook access the cd drive on desktop ( via wireless) ok and also see other drives/folders there that are shared but get error message .. cannot access \\name-pc\data. Presume i am hitting the same buttons to give permissions ??	cowboy stu (7021)
1165424	2010-12-29 06:45:00	So do you mean it can see the folders but not access them? I guess it will be a permissions thing	gary67 (56)
1165425	2010-12-29 07:45:00	correct . . can access cd drive and download files . Have got into permissions . . think I've fixed it Thanks for hint Why won't the XP laptop show on network . Has same workgroup name . Has been there before . Not sure what I've changed to lose it !!	cowboy stu (7021)

1165428	2010-12-29 20:32:00	I had that problem with XP when I reinstalled the XP computer it magically returned to my networked Win7 machine, yet it had still been in view on my other XP computers so not sure what was wrong After similar problems I re-started the router and all came right . Bad router tables can't be left out of the mixture . Your re-installation could well caused a new entry in the router thus all came right . Good theory, anyway! But re-starting the router is quick and painless, even if it is not the problem!	linw (53)
