I am using Windows 7 and when I try to set up a Homegroup I get the messageIPv6 not enabled. I have followed the instructions and the box for this is ticked, but when I run a check is tells me it's not enabled. I am using a Compaq Presario SR2125UK -on my Toshiba Laptop I don't get this problem.Can anyone help me with this please?

If it is listed, let'smodify the relevant registry toenable IPv6.Modify registry value==============Note: it is highly recommended to backup your registry settings before modifying.1)Click Start, type regedit in Search Bar, and then click regedit in the Programs list. Note: If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type your password or click Continue. 2)Locate and then click the following registry subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\TCPIP6\Parameters 3)Check whether the "DisabledComponents" registry key exists.
