XP to Vista file sharing

dfehr28 · 03-27-2009, 11:13 PM

Hello everyone,

I hope one of you fine people could help me with my file sharing woe's. I have a PC with XP and a laptop with Vista. They can both access the internet and are in the same workgroup.

My problem is that I cannot access my shared folders from PC to Laptop. My PC shows up in the network map but not in the computers and devices folder.

Any ideas...
