Ometoch Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Ok, been searching all over for this answer. I have a new system, just installed a few days ago, and am attempting to get it up on my network. I have all the other computers networked just fine (one running XP media center, one with Vista 32 bit), and they can see each other, and my 64 bit comp. The 64 bit comp can ping everyone and browse the net. Not only are there no computers in Network Places (including itself) the only thing there is my router. I have uPNP devices enabled, and it sees the router.... however, I cannot use view workgroup computers. No errors, just the default system beep sound after a second after clicking it. I have found no solutions for this anywhere, and I am hoping that someone here can be my saviour. I am almost bald from ripping my hair out over this one!!!!

nitroshift Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Make sure your new machine is in the same IP class, subnet mask and workgroup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.SubZero Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Do you have Client for Microsoft Networks installed and working? I recently built a XP64 rig and I had a currupt file during install that broke CfMN and I had similar symptoms.I posted a fix in the Client for Microsoft Networks thread a few down.

I read that post. and I remember having troubles with that file. Now, here is the question... do you have a good copy of localsp.dll?? I can't find one anywhere. I would appreciate it if I could get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ometoch Posted February 15, 2007 Author Share Posted February 15, 2007 Ok, problem solved..... although I have no clue how. I went on the net, and grabbed a localspl.dll from some site. dropped it in system32 folder and.... nothing. still same issue. Looked around for a few more hours, tried waving a dead chicken around, still nothing. Then, I saw the post about SP2.... so I figured why not? D/L it, and boom! it works. now, I am not sure if it worked cause I now had the dll listed, and it just updated it, or what.... not willing to try to reproduce it. but, thanks again to everyone who replied. I love forums that actually help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krobon Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Go to your network connectionsThen go to the properties of the used network cardInstall (Client for microsoft networks)I had the exact same problem, kinda why I registered. Somehow my network uninstalled that. If you already have it installed, try removing it and reinstalling it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
