Re: Vista SP2 breaks local share access from XP computer



Hi Wayne,

Unfortunately before I saw your post I solved the problem by reverting back
to SP1 on the Vista PCs. Since I reverted by restoring the drive images I
made before installing SP2, I can't go back and check the event log.

I think I can probably stay on SP1 until Windows 7 and avoid the issue
entirely.

If you see this error a number of times and the time-stamp coincides with
the time you were trying to access shared resources from the XP machine I
may be able to help you. I had this problem before with an XP client (the
rest of my home network is a mix of 32-bit and 64-bit Vista) accessing
resources shared on a Vista machine and the problem only manifested on the
XP client. From memory it was the same message as you are getting.

If it is what I think it might be, it's not SP2 that is the cause, although
I haven't tried accessing any Vista machines with SP2 from XP as yet. I only
have SP2 on one Vista machine so far.
