I can see every computer on the network, and I can log into vista laptops, but when I try to log in into XPdesktop from Vista laptops, it tells me that my user name or password are incorrect. I can log from XPdesktop to my laptops, but the laptops can't log into my XPdesktop On windows xp welcome login screen, my user id is Owner, and password is 123. I even tried to create a new user (admin) account on XPdesktop with user name jjj and password jjj, but when I try to login from laptops, I still get an error message telling me the user name or password is incorrect. Any help would be greatly appriciated. Thank you, Martin |
