Control Panel--Network and Sharing Center. Be sure you're setup
correctly--Network Discovery, ON and File Sharing, ON. Also be sure the same user is logged into all machines. Remember, Vista has hidden its ADMINISTRATOR account so a Vusta User with admin. rights may not be the same as an XP ADMINISTRATOR. "Gloria Boyer [MSFT]" wrote in message ... Hi.

Just a thought. I had a similar problem trying to add a new computer to my
network before I realized I had MAC filtering turned on in my router. I had forgot about it and felt real stupid after about an hour of trying things.

Superiortruck,
I'm sorry you're experiencing trouble. Is the problem still occurring for you? If so, can you please repost the exact error message you're getting?
