The Big Book of Windows Hacks and Windows Vista in a Nutshell are up for grabs

by Milo on December 13th, 2007

Preston Gralla is giving away two of his latest books, “The Big Book of Windows Hacks” and “Windows Vista in a Nutshell” as a prize for whoever fixes his network problems in Vista.

His problem in a nutshell: When I install Vista SP1 on one of my Vista machines, I can see all the PCs on my network, but I can only browse to the XP ones, not the Vista one. So, for example, when I double-click the icon of a Vista PC on my network in my network folder, or from the Network Map, I get the error message “Windows cannot access (name of the PC I’m trying to access)”. Similarly, on my other Vista PC, when I double-click the icon of the SP1 Vista PC, I get the same error message. However, I can make connections to and from the XP PCs on my network.

More of his problems here.
