CHAPTER 6 Troubleshooting

Make sure you are accessing the game correctly
See the game’s documentation to find out how to access the game on a
network.
I can’t see a drive or printer on a network PC
Open My Computer and look for the drive or printer (printers are in the
Printer folder) after each step. If you cannot see it, go to the next step.
To view a drive or printer on a network PC:
1
Make sure to turn on the PC where the drive or printer is located.
2 Make sure both PCs are on the network.
3 Make sure the PC has shared the drive or printer.
Open
Network Neighborhood. If you can see the other PC, both PCs
are on the network. Otherwise, refer to "I can’t see a network PC from
another PC" on page 51.
I can’t map or print to a printer
If you can’t map to a printer, try to map again each time you verify one of
the following:
• Make sure the PC that has the printer physically attached to it is on the
network and turned on.
• At the PC mapping the printer, open
Network Neighborhood. If you
can see the PC sharing the printer, both PCs are on the network. If you
cannot, refer to "I can’t see a network PC from another PC" on page 51.
• Make sure the printer is shared. Printers must be shared before they can
be mapped. See "Change printer sharing and mapping" on page 30.
• Make sure the printer driver is installed on the PC mapping the printer.
See "Install printer drivers" on page 31.
If you cannot print to a mapped printer, try printing after the following:
• Make sure the printer and the PC sharing the printer are turned on.
• Make sure both PCs are on the network.
Open
Network Neighborhood. If you can see the other PC, both PCs
are on the network. If you cannot, refer to "I can’t see a network PC
from another PC" on page 51.
• Make sure the printer is shared and mapped. See "Change printer
sharing" on page 30 and "Change printer mapping" on page 30.
