Hi, i installed hamachi, and my classmate aswell. We connected to the network i made. We can chat/ping eachother. But, we can't look on eachothers pc's. Even with all the firewalls turned of. i use vista, he uses XP. Any suggestion?

well...maybe it´s not competible with different operating systems ...

..nah, it must have to be compatible, are you sure that antivirus doesn´t make a problem?

Use the Windows VPN instead. LFS doesn't support the Hamachi IP range whether you're licensed or not.

I'm trying GTA IV via lan. and we're both using avast and windows firewall

He can look on my shared folders, but i can't.

Do you have file sharing turned on?
If not go to Control Panel and launch Network Setup Wizard. Go thru the wizard and configure it as you prefer and remember to turn file sharing on.
If you can't find Network Setup Wizard, you have Control Panel's view configured differently than mine, if that's the case then you have to just try to find it.

BUT I wouldn't recommend having file sharing on while connected to internet and I don't remember how Hamachi's file sharing system works.

And BTW if you want to play GTA IV via Hamachi, you have to check that Hamachi is set up as default internet connection in Windows Live (needs registry modification).

Registry edit doesnt seem to work on 64bit. Sigh

I mean the default regedit what comes with Windows.

Start -> Run -> write "regedit" and hit ok. And then don't do anything stupid.

I know, i added the reg that was needed, rebooted, and it doesn't work.

Ah ok, that's weird.

When Hamachi running, you open up GTA IV and hit "home" and check it from there it still doesn't show Hamachi as the internet device?

yep, it doesn't
