I have a new computer using Vista Ultimate connected to a laptop with Vista
business edition through a router. Both computers can see the network and
the internet but the lap top can not access my 2 printers on the main
computer although it can see them. All the settings are OK. I changed the
router without success and I have tried the laptop on another network and it
connected instantly. This implies that there is something wrong with the
settings on the main computer but I have been unable to find anything wrong,
nor has a consultant who spent a day trying to sort it out. I am computer
literate but not completely confident with networking. Any suggestions?
 
Tried all that. 2 other computer guys have tried to help and tried everything
we can think of to no effect. Seems to be a Vista permissions problem but we
have checked those too. Could it be a compatibility problem between Ultimate
and Business or Home versions working together? Each computer sees the other
and both ping OK but still can not access files or printers.
