Network Map Issue
Vista Home Basic laptop mixed with Win7 and XP desktops on a home network. All shares etc. work correctly. The problem is "Display Network Map" basically hangs while stating "Creating Network Map". PC becomes almost unusable and requires Task Manager to kill the process before pc returns to "kind of normal". It appears to be a "scvhost" process so unsure exactly what it's "running". I say "kind of" because after doing this the PC also hangs at Logging Off which normally it doesn't do but nothing seems amiss until then. I found a short listing of various services etc. should be running but the names didn't exactly match what I found under Services. I insured what seemed appropriate was set to "Automatic" which they already were. The correct protocol is installed, even uninstalled and reinstalled to insure that. Not a big issue but bothersome. Any ideas? |

Any ideas? Have you installed the Link Layer Transport Protocol on all WinXP PCs ? -- Dave Multi-AV Scanning Tool - http://multi-av.thespykiller.co.uk http://www.pctipp.ch/downloads/dl/35905.asp |

Any ideas? Have you installed the Link Layer Transport Protocol on all WinXP PCs ? Yes. There's only one a seldom used or even turned on laptop. BTW - the laptop on or not should not make any difference. At worst Network Map should simply not know where to "place" the device. I fail to see how you think checking some other pc will help a second pc with the problem I'm having, e.g. displaying the Network Map basically hangs and never goes anywhere. In the meantime system is unresponsive at best. It's clear "something" on the Vista pc is expecting something and never times out for it. Question is what??? |
