[Bug] A-300 started to ask for password everytime I want to access my desktop from it

[djhifi]

Hi guys! My A300 whenever I wish to access Desktop A now started prompting me with LOGIN and PASSWORD. It is wierd because turning on another PC and trying to access Desktop A gives no errors, I can see all the shared folders.

It started all of a sudden. I still have no HDD on A300 but that was no problem I could access my Desktop and browse the folders.

Its simple, inside WORKGROUP, everytime I try to access my pc it prompts user a password on a300, weird! Started all of a sudden. I cant access it simply. Just a folder I had added previously on the network selection thingy

HELP

EDIT: Solved it. Dunno if by uninstalling LIVE (networkedmediatank(DOT)com/wiki/index.php/Networking_with_Windows7) if by turning of (in windows7) media sharing.

Strange bug Syabas

you mean strange of microsoft to disable/change settings on some share things when those are installed.

I really doubt the problem was the Popcorn hour, since it was a client problem obviously (not server side)

[chris57]

Another example of lets blame Syabas. It's just laziness not to investigate issues properly and just blame the player.

I got a new a300 and it is giving me an invalid login code, I don't have a password.

Read the instructions that came with your unit. There's should be a white piece of paper with the information you seek. If not check the Wiki, on the top of every page.

Totally off-topic:

chris57 atleast I made and "EDIT" in the 1st post so, sorry "Sir" if the problem is almost obvious from Syabas given I could access my desktop from another desktop but NOT from popcorn hour (and more people opened a thread like mine).

And YES it is a bug from Syabas OFC, given more people reported the same it's a big coincidence being otherwise, hum? Thing IS, I solved it but it's not Microsoft sided nor user sided, as I stated there are more threads describing the problem similar to mine. Search for it before being arrogant with costumers.
Or when you mean its "client side" when I have to uninstall Windows Live Messenger in order for things to work you believe in what you say? (and Jasch aswell)

As you dont know sh*t regarding how deep I went in investigating the problem, rather then harrassing costumers with that prepotent attitude try an be a bit more proactive! Something you mustn't know about, do you Sir?
Super-Moderator ? LAWL, wrong guy.

*sigh* people man...people

Cheers mate

as to the windows part of your problem.

Windows does allow other windows PC to join a workgroup as the credentials are exchanges without the user seeing it happen.
Your PCH is, for some reason only your windows knows, not part of that workgroup and therefor is asked for credentials each time.
In most setups like yours there is no problem, a solution might be to rename the PCH workgroup name to PCHGROUP and have you PC's join both workgroups.


Oh yeah, as to the other part of your problem... here is a tip... crappy communication style will in general not get you the right answers.
