I have 5 pcs setup with vista home basic. I have one pc that shares it files. When one pc opens an excel file,word or access db from the share the other pc's can not open the same file.

If I click on "Network" it takes about 4 or 5 minutes to actually update & show all the PC's. A file that took 5 minutes to D/L from the Internet (~500mb) takes an hour to copy to another machine over a 100 MB network. All non-Vista machines on the network are fast & do not have this problem.

I told Eric that I would post the results of using the tech article related to trouble networking a VISTA computer to a net containing XP's and others. I used the article "File and Printer Sharing in Windows Vista" and followed it through from beginning to end. Many of the suggestions I had already implemented. I found I needed to set the "Share" properties on several folders and printers...

I'm running a mostly-XP LAN, with a number of machines connected together through a gigabit switch. Everything runs fine, including my new Sony Vaio SZ440. However, the Vaio only works at 100 mbps and if I use the built-in NIC (and I have the "slow copy across network" problem, though it sees all my machines and can access their file systems). I have a couple of Netgear GA511 gigabit NIC...

I have two PCs (one XP SP2 and one Vista Premium), two printers, and a cable modem all connected through a linksys router. Every time I start the Vista machine, one of the printers is always offline. I have not found a way to get the printer online other than to delete it and then add it. This always works but is a bit of a pain to have to do on every start. Anyone encounter this yet?
