Windows 7 Doesn't seem to see Drive

WD Legacy Products My Book Live
1

Trying to setup my new WD My Book on my Windows 7 laptop.  I went into “My Computer”, clicked “Network”, but nothing comes up?  

Light is a solid green on the drive, and I’m connected to the same wireless router that I’ve connected the drive to?

Help!

Thanks!

Figured out the culprit.  For anyone else with this issue, type “services” into your start bar run area, then ensure the following are not disabled and that they are started:

DNS Client

Function Discovery Resource Publication

SSDP

UPnP

IP Helper

Well, am now trying to use a different laptop and for some reason I’m not seeing the WD Live drive in my Network area under My Computer.

I see the Storage device “MyBookLive” but can’t access any of the actual files in the Explorer as I can with my other laptop.

Any ideas?
