I have a Home network with a "wired" XP Desktop, linked to a Vista Laptop via
a wireless connection, all updates are current. I am attempting to share files from the XP to the laptop, files have been shared to network computers both are in the same workgroup, the XP is not password protected the Vista machine is. The shared XP files are "visible" from the Vista machine, however when click, I get an access denied flag? Suggestions for how to resolve the problem are apprectiated, TKS, BB3 |
