RE: Same as everyone else: Problem with Vista / XP network!
Just wondering if anyone has worked this out yet? I have a similar but
slightly different problem. Had an existing network with 4XP machines and
added a Dell lap top with Vista Business. XP machines can access files on
the Vista machine, but Vista machine requires a log in name and password when
none are set. The Vista machine also won't find shared printers on the XP
machines. Add to this... Just bought an ACER lap top with Vista Home and it
networked flawlessly. Anyone have any thoughts. Thanks for you time...
