need permission from administator

[Ken Jeffery]

Hi All
Just trying to set up home network between 2 xp home
computers the first one fine, the second one says "MSHOME
is not accessible. You might not have permission to use
this network resource. Contact the administator of this
server to find out if you have access permission"
And when trying to share a folder I get "Error occured
while trying to share "FOLDER NAME" the sever service is
not started. The shared resource was not created at this
time"
I thought maybe that someyhing was wrong with windows so
I put in the disk and tried to repair windows, it asked
for an administrator password and I put in the one I use
to log on with (the only one I know)Windows says wrong
password and won't let me repair, this has statred to
worry me as I don't know what the password could be.
This is a compaq computer with a recovery disk not like a
normal windows disk if that makes a difference.
Thanking you in adfvance
Ken

Hey there, I am getting the same error. However, I have
not tried repairing wondows. It just says you don't have
permission at access this network resource. If you find
an answer, please let me know.

Hello,

If you did not install it or change anything after you got the system I
believe the password in "null" so just hit the enter key. {I do believe
however that when you first set it up for yourself it requested an
ADMINISTRATOR password to be entered.) However the "CD" you have is a
restore CD and it does not contain the full XP Home you will not be able to
do a repair function. You can however do a complete "RESTORE" of the system
back to what it was shipped with. You would then need to install SP1, and
any other patches for what you have on the system.
If the box is still under warranty call them and explain the problem. They
do have a CD that they can ship to you that will allow the "REPAIR" function
to work.

Good Luck,
Supertech

and then click OK two times.
