Live Mesh will not work on eMachine T2698; no remote access RRS feed

  • Question

  • I have two Dell laptops and an eMachine T2698 on my mesh.  The eMachine synchronizes properly but I cannot access my eMachine T2698 from the Dell computers which are also on my mesh.  I have completely uninstalled Live Mesh two times from the T2698 including removal of certain items from the registry - and by checking the Windows Add or Remove Programs in Control Panel I see that Live Mesh was completely gone both times.  I have twice reinstalled Live Mesh from the .exe file which I saved on my desktop (per hints found in alensiljak.blogspot.com).  Each time I find that it synchronizes properly but the eMachine cannot be accessed remotely.  What am I doing wrong?

    eMachines T2698 with 1g ram and 250g hard drive running XP.  The two Dell laptops work fine with Live Mesh.  When I am using the T2698 I can access both Dell laptops and work with them.   But I cannot access the eMachine from either of the Dell laptops.

  • In addition to Ken's question, are you running security of any sort on the PC in the form of a 3rd party firewall?

  • What version of XP are you using?  Also what is your user level access for your login to XP?  Admin or User?
