Is It Completely Impossible To Network Vista with 2K?
I've never experienced such difficulty in setting up a network. Is this
impossible? All I have is a Vista machine and a 2K machine. I can't get them to network for the life of me. I have ICS setup OK through the Vista machine but it can't see the 2K machine. Workgroup is the same on each machine. Each machine setup as home network, but this always seems to default to business...hmmm. Anyway, is there any possibility of ever networking the two? TIA Koka
