Problem setting up a network between XP and Vista
At home, I have a lap top using Vista Home Premium while two other PCs and
one other lap top are using XP. The XPs connect with each other well, sharing files and a printer by a router connected to one of the PCs. How can I connect the Vista with them? Thanks!

Problem setting up a network between XP and Vista
Or try Network Magic as mentioned in other threads. I installed it and was able to see my XP machines immediately. Still can't see them through the Vista Network interface however. There's a free 30 day trial version on their website:
