Ok i have 2 systems running xp, one ethernet to router and other wireless to
router, and one system running vista - wireless to router, also a wireless network printer. i have no troubles with my internet connection on each of the systems but the file sharing just wont work. i am running PC-cillin internet security 07 on all systems, and have adjusted all setting to stop the firewall interfering (even tried turning it off). Before I installed vista, the vista system (then on xp) could only discover the printer and the wired to modem xp system. everything is on the same workgroup. I have tried third party network programs and nothing works. Widnows help holds no answers ..... any suggestions???? |

You're going to need more detailed diagnostics than "file sharing just wont work". http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/06/background-information-useful-in.html http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/0...useful-in.html Maybe start over when setting up the new computer. http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2006/12/windows-xp-and-vista-on-lan-together.html http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2006/1...-together.html -- Cheers, Chuck, MS-MVP [Windows - Networking] http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/ Paranoia is not a problem, when it's a normal response from experience.
