<p>If you are using mixed network environment with Windows 7 or Windows Vista and Windows XP machines, you can have issues by Windows XP not appearing on the network map in Windows 7.</p>
<p>To be able to browse the computers using the network map, you have to Install the <strong>Link Layer Topology Discovery (LLTD) Responder</strong> on the Windows XP machines.</p>
<p>LLTD is available on the following link:</p>
<p><span style="color: #003366;"><a style="color: #003366;" href="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&;FamilyID=4f01a31d-ee46-481e-ba11-37f485fa34ea" target="_blank">DOWNLOAD Link Layer Topology Discovery Responder</a></span></p>
<p>NOTE: This package only works with Windows XP SP2. If you install LLTD before you&#8217;ve applied SP3, the LLTD files are updated to the SP3 versions.</p>
<p>Installation is fairly simple. Next, next, finish track. :)<!--more--></p>
<p>For SP3 installations please refer to the following link:</p>
<p><span style="color: #003366;"><a style="color: #003366;" href="http://cid-e40fc8e37c2475ae.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/Public/WindowsXP-KB922120-v6-x86-ENU.zip" target="_blank">LLTD v6 Download</a></span></p>
<p>You can also try to do it manually using provided v5 installation package for SP2:</p>
<p>Rename the LLTD WindowsXP-KB922120-v5-ENU.exe windowsXP-KB922120-v5-ENU.exe to a simpler name e.g. 922120 and place it on e.g. C:\<br />
Click Start button navigate to run prompt and type in cmd and press enter or click ok (a black window will open)<br />
Type the following in the command prompt (cursor blinking)<br />
cd c:\</p>
<p>Type in command window:<br />
c:\922120.exe -x:c:\922120</p>
<p>Files will extract to folder named <strong>922120</strong> and pressuming that the package is now downloaded and extracted all you need is to concentrate on the folder named SP2QFE.</p>
<p>Inside you will find a file named rspndr.sys place it inside your <strong>C:\Windows\System32\Drivers</strong> directory, rspndr.exe should be placed inside your <strong>C:\Windows\System32</strong> directory and finally the rspndr.inf which is inside the IP named folder, should be placed inside your (previously) hidden <strong>C:\Windows\Inf</strong> directory.<br />
Now you all done! Start the service by opening a cmd prompt window again navigating to directory by typing cd <strong>C:\Windows\System32</strong> directory and issuing the following command once there on same prompt window.</p>
<p><strong>rspndr.exe -i (enter)</strong></p>
<p>You should receive a confirmation that the service is installed and by opening your NIC card properties you will confirm by reviewing that there is a checked entry for Link Layer Topology Discovery.
