Xp and vista?!

[Niko33]

Hey there!, its pretty anoying because i cant connect my Xp computer to my Vista computer, and the other way is the same.
I'v tryed Multibox_Modified and SynergyWithBroadcast.
Is it simply impossible or what ?

It's entirely possible - two of my machines run Vista and I have zero issues with interoperability both with each other and with my XP machines, so far as boxing goes.

What sort of problem are you getting?

I ran into the same thing when I had both OS'es. You'll have to install some vista network discovery thingy on the XP computer. I can't really remember, it's a while ago, but it was available as a download directly from Microsoft's pages.

That's interesting.

I didn't download / change a thing on my XP boxes. I literally brought my Vista boxes home, stuck them on the router, and everyone could see each other quite happily.

Well i dont know whats wrong, it just seem's like they wont contect
kayb: Do you think you could find out of witch program that was ?

What hardware are you using to connect them through?

[Niko33]

As i wrote: I'v tryed Multibox_Modified and SynergyWithBroadcast.

Hardware. Read it again, HARDWARE, Router, Switch etc? Can you connect to that PC using any other software? can you ping the other PC, etc.

[Niko33]

Ohh sorry xD
Im using a router and im not using wireless net.

I'v also tryed to take my firewall off on both computers

[Wilbur]

Can you ping Computer A from Computer B ?
