| Vista Ultimate 64 | Network sharing between Vista and XP Pro I have a home network with 2 desktops connected. 1 running XP Pro the other running Vista Ultimate. I am trying to set up file and printer sharing, but the Vista machine can not see the XP one, or the network printer. The printer is connected to the XP machine. The network groups are the same, but I can not see the pc or the printer. Confused.com |
