Network; XP PC is Not Discoverable

Discussion in 'Windows Vista' started by denmarfl, Sep 19, 2009.

    Running Network with 2 PC's running Vista Home Prem32BIT and 1 PC running
    WindowsXP SP3. When I open Network & Sharing center in my Vista PC's and
    click on VIEW FULL MAP.....it shows my Vista PC's but does not show my XP PC.
    At the Bottom of the Window it reads "The Following discovered Device(s) can
    not be placed in the map". I did some research and it directed me to an
    issue causing this issue referred to as Link-Layer Topology Discovery Mapper
    I/O Driver and Link-Layer Topology. I checked the setting is the VISTA PC,
    they are checked. Since I am running Window XP SP3, the Link-Layer update is
    not needed (although I did download it, when I tried to install it on the XP
    PC it came back as not needed as a newer version was present).

    I am able to show the XP PC when I map My Network using other softwares, I
    am able to see and share files between the Vista PC's and the XP PC.

    Any ideas why I can't Map the XP Machine when I click on VIEW FULL MAP in my
    Vista PC's?

    Check the network properties list in the WinXP system for a component called the
    Link-Layer Topology Discovery (LLTD) Responder. If the LLTD Responder component
    is not installed on the Windows XP-based computer it won't be seen in Vista's
    Network Map.

    Here's a link to an MS fix for the WinXP system. Note, if it's up to SP3, the
    downloadable version (fix v5) probably won't to anything but say that it's not
    needed, so then simply request the hotfix patch (fix v6) and apply it to the
    WinXP-SP3 system.



    Good luck!

    As you noted in your reply, I am running XP SP3 and I had already run the
    Hotfix that was available with 922120. When I ran that file it came back
    that the version already installed on my XP PC was newer. I assume this was
    v5. How would I secure v6?

    You must request the hotfix from MS. The how-to information is contained within
    the KB article I previously cited.

    If it is a Hotfix then only get it from the source which is Microsoft. All other
    sites that advertise this Hotfix are spammers getting info from your system to
    further their needs
    webster72n gave a correct answer to the OP

    The actual size of that Hotfix is 365kb which takes about 5 seconds to download
    directly from Microsoft.
    If you download from that not very reputable site that you posted you will have a
    download of approximately 500 + kb's. The reason for this is that the site you
    posted pulls info from your system using the time difference that it takes to
    download and uses it for furthering spam which they do . They also sell info to
    other spammers.

    Sorry to be a pest, but all I saw was information to request a lsit of all
    Hotfixes......which could be a long list.

    When I requested the HotFix at the site you provided.....I got an email back
    from Microsoft providing a link to download the HotFix....the file to
    download is entitled 350011_ENU_i386_zip.exe. Is this the 922120 v6 file?

    Do you have the Link to Download this HotFix? I tried the 922120 Ver 5....as
    I explained, and when I ran that file it came back that I had a newer
    version...and did not need 922120v5. Dave also mentions that if I already
    was running SP# that I would get this message and advised I should get the V6
    version of this fix. When I did a search at Microsoft for the v6 I got no
    hits. I fully agree with you, that is, download only from Microsoft and will
    appreciate your further assistance to provide the link....thank You

    Can you provide a link?

    The official WindowsXP-KB922120-v5-x86-ENU.exe downloaded from Microsoft is
    520,192 bytes

    WindowsXP-KB922120-v6-x86-ENU.exe downloaded from Rapidshare is 532,480
    bytes

    So it seems to be in the right ballpark for size considering the version
    difference and both are digitally signed by Microsoft.

    And I can verify it (v6) worked on all of my XP (1 Pro and 2 Home) systems.

    The file contained in the email I got from Microsoft to download is entitled
    350011_ENU_i386_zip.exe. Since it doesn't show v6 in the title at all, I am
    not sure if this is the Hotfix you suggested I install. Are you familar
    enough with the v6 version that this file, 350011_ENU_i386_zip.exe is the v6
    Fike you referred to?

    Yes, that's the zip file that contains the hotfix that you need. They've given
    you a password to open the zip and this password is time limited, so you should
    act fast.
