Intermittant Network error
I'm sure this has been a problem for other people, but I can't find an answer.
I have several PCs on my LAN. Some are XP and one is Vista 64, Sometimes everything works just fine. I can see each PC from he other; browse the hard drives copy files... But occasionally my Vista machine seems to loose its mind and can no longer see my XP machine. If I then walk over to my Xp machine, it can see the Vista machine just fine. Even weirder, if i walk away for a few hours, the Vista machine magically starts talking to the XP machine again. I just don't know where to start to resolve this. |
