    how to add my new vista laptop to my home network

    I have an xp desktop with router, xp laptop connects to network just
    fine.

    How do I add my new Vista laptop to the network??



    I go to the Network and Sharing Centre, click to connect and the
    Laptop doesn't find the network.

    Can someone advise?

    Thanks!!

    The above should help re: workgroup name, network discovery, password
    protect, etc
