Windows 7 and XP LAN sharing and resetting IP protocol issues

You can try the following steps on Windows XP:

A Update Windows XP to Windows XP Service Pack 3.

Two To start related services:

1. Click Start, run, run services.msc, and then press ENTER.

2. Locate and double-click the following service, change the startup type to Automatic, and click Start.

Remote Procedure Call (RPC)

Computer Browser Service

Server

TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper

Workstation

Three To turn on NetBIOS:

1. Click Start, run, run ncpa.cpl, and press ENTER.

2. Right click on the local connection, and then click Properties.

3. Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), and then click Properties.

4. Click Advanced, select the WINS tab, and select NetBIOS on the start TCP/IP.

5. Click OK.

Four Open the Guest account.

Another: Remove the network Store Interface service because Windows XP does not have this service.

Or:

1. Check the properties of the local connection the Microsoft network client is installed and if not, click Install to install it.

2. Run the following command line:

netsh winsock reset catalog

netsh int ipv4 reset "C:reset.log"

netsh int ipv6 reset "C:reset.log"

If it still doesn't work, you can also try to turn off Internet Protocol version 6 (TCP/IPV6) on Windows 7.
