    Desktop Windows 7 - wired
    Laptop Windows 7 - wireless
    Laptop Vista - wireless

    I can connect the two Windows 7 computers and access the external drives on the desktop with the laptop. But I can not connect the Vista laptop. I can see the other computers on the network, but when I try to connect to one of the Windows 7 computers it says:

    \\HP-Desktop is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network rexources. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.

    Logon failure: user account restriction. Possible reasons are blank passwords not allowed, logon hour restrictions, or a policy restriction has been enforced.

    I HAVE ALWAYS HATED VISTA!!!

    Please help

    Yes. It's that "Home Group" stuff on Windows 7. Vista can not connect to "Home Group". I'm going to clean all of the computers off of the network and start all over again.
