XP/VISTA PRINTER SHAREING and FILE SHAREING
OK, I have a workgroup created beetween my xp and vista, my vista is the
computer i used to make the network. I can access the files stored on my vista from my xp, but not the other way around. When i try to print from my xp, it says it "communication not availible", but i can print perfectly from the vista. I have set this printer has a shared printer on both computers. I have pinged the vista from the xp with 0% data loss, but when i ping the xp from the vista i get 100% data lost. Any suggestions on how i can share files PRINTER: DELL AIO PHOTO 924 XP: Dell Inspiron B120 Vista: XPS M1210

How are the computers connected? http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/06/background-information-useful-in.html http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/0...useful-in.html Look at the NetBT setting, and at any personal firewalls and any other security component. http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2006/07/advanced-windows-networking-using.html http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2006/0...ing-using.html -- Cheers, Chuck, MS-MVP [Windows - Networking] http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/ Paranoia is not a problem, when it's a normal response from experience.
