    Unable to Ping Windows Vista PC

    How can I turn on "allow incoming echo request "on Vista so I can ping it from another machine?

    Thanks.

    Check the icmp settings of windows

    Start>>Run>>firewall.cpl>>Advanced>>Click "Settings" under ICMP

    the only option that should be checked is "Allow incoming echo request", hope this helps.

    I tried out but this didn't work at all, is there any settings in my computer which does not allow me to take changes.

    Two possibilities may be there for this:

    1. A firewall program is blocking access to the computer.

    2. Vista thinks that the computer is on a public network. Go to Control Panel > Network and Sharing Center and configure it as a private network.
