After a lot of attempts I finally found a solution that worked for me to solve this
error message that appears when you try to access another pc or laptop on your mixed
xp home / xp pro home network. There were a lot of solutions on all kinds of sites
including this one, but none of them worked for me except the steps below. Hope
this helps someone out!
1) Open Network Connections
2) Right click the wired or wireless connection you use to access the internet (for
example, I use "Wireless Network Connection")
3) Select "Properties"
4) Select "install" then "protocol" then "add"
5) From the list select "microsoft tcp/ip version 6" and add it
6) Again select "install" then "protocol" then "add"
7) From the list select "NWLink IPX/SPX/NetBIOS compatible transport protocol" and
add it
8) Press OK or close
9) Go to the "advanced" menu at the very top of the network connections window (6th
menu along)
10) Select "advanced settings"
11) Select the connection you use to connect to the internet
12) Under "file and printer sharing" tick tcp/ip 6 and nwlink. untick any others
13) Under "client" tick tcp/ip 6 and nwlink. untick any others
14) do steps 1 to 13 on all computers on your network
15) restart all computers
16) for me at least (running two laptops both with xp pro, and one desktop with
xp home) all computers can now see each other and access shared folders and printers
with no problems at all. no warning messages, no delays!
Hope this works for you as quickly as it worked for me, I've seen this solution
nowhere else on the web.
