Ok, I recently bought a new computer(NEW) & have it hooked up to my D-Link router (DI-604). My old computer(OLD) is also hooked up to the router as well. Both machines are running XP Pro. & I have the firewall disabled on both. On NEW, when I go to "My network Places/view workbook computers I can see both computers. On OLD I can only see OLD. Also, from my old computer I can ping both, and on NEW I can only ping NEW. FYI, I have also enabled netBIOS over TCP/IP. :nono: So, when I click on the old computer from the new one I get a error popup window that says:

 

""\\OLD is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resouce. Contact the Admistrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. The network path was not found.""

 

Any one have a clue what the problem could be? :P

Have you shared at least one drive from each PC? This must be done in order to access them from the other PC.

 

What IP addresses did you assign each PC? Are you blocking any type of traffic on the router ports to which they are connected (this might be contributing to your ping problem from the new to old)?

 

Also, at what speed are your router ports and network cards set to? They all have to match unless they are set to Auto Detect (Auto/10MB/100MB)? But sometimes Auto doesn't play well with others - set them all to the same speed for best results.

 

Hope this helps and good luck!

Try this go to your older machine the one that you know works on the network. Go into My network I believe and off to the left there should be some option click on set up home network, run through that wizard and it will as you to put in a floppy disk it will copy some files over then go to your new computer pop the floppy in and run the .exe file on it and it should set up all of your domain names and other setting so that it will work on your network. I hope this will help.

Check to see if you are both in the same workgroup. Right-Click on My Computer, select properties and the Computer Name tab, that should show your workgroup. You can click the Change button to rename the workgroup. You will have to reboot both computers if you change the name.

None of that works, my IP address' are 192.168.0.101 & 192.168.0.102, both computers are set up on the basic MSHOME workgroup. I also set both to 100 FULL DUPLEX......still not working.... :P

OK, I would start from scratch... Make sure that the only protocol you have installed is TCPIP and the Client is Client for MS networks and that you have File and Print Sharing for MS Networks installed in your Network Properties that pertain to your network card. It really sounds like your router needs more configuration.

 

After you make any changes, do a ping to see if that works before trying to access one PC from another.

 

What is the IP address on your router? If you are using DHCP from your router, then all PCs must be set to DHCP (Obtain an IP address automatically).

 

If not, have you done this on your router? ( I got this from the D-Link web site for your particular router).

 

Q: How do I configure Static DHCP on my router?

 

NOTE: When creating a Static DHCP entry, the IP address that you choose to have assigned needs to be in the range of the DHCP scope. Entries created with IP addresses outside of this range will not take effect.

 

A: Step 1 Open your web browser and enter the IP address of your D-Link router (192.168.0.1). Enter username (admin) and your password (blank by default).

 

Step 2 Click on the Home tab and then click DHCP on the left column.

 

Step 3 Under the Static DHCP section next to DHCP Client, select one of the DHCP clients from the list and click Clone.

 

Step 4 Select Enabled and enter the IP address you would like this client to always obtain.

 

Step 5 Verify that the Name and MAC Address fields have the correct Hostname and MAC address for the client and click Apply. If the Hostname or MAC address is not correct, Release and Renew the IP address on the client and then refresh the DHCP page.

      Gas Prices

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.

      Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.

      Correct.  2019-2021 model years are serviced by a different p/n.  19420611.  Recall 2021s use 19420611.   The recall engines 2022-2024 model years are serviced with 12740076.     The difference between 19420611 and 12740076 is GM changed injector size for 2022.  The injectors are smaller on 12740076 with smaller injector bores in the cylinder heads to match the smaller injectors.  So you can't install a 19420611 in a 2022-2024, and you can't install a 12740076 in a 2019-2021.     Both engines are the replacement engine p/ns that are in the L87 recall.  So both of these are the updated engines.     Here's a version of the L87 recall with the p/ns for all the parts needed.    RCRIT-25V274-7075.pdf   Note it shows 19420611 and 12740076 with an asterisk to a footnote "Use the VIN and the GM Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC) to determine which part to order if two or more part numbers are listed for the same part, as it may vary by vehicle options."

      2020 Trailboss 6.2 replacement

      Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By GN2018 · Posted

      Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.
