Vista - Help me connect.

11-15-2007

I just bought a laptop with wireless and vista. I have run the networking
setup wizard on my home pc, which is a hp with xp. When I put the usb into
my laptop to run the setup wizard, it goes through all the steps and then
says it can not complete the wizard. I have tried every setting I can think
of and can not seem to connect to my pc or use the printer connected to the
pc. It doesn't even show up under my network connections. I have a linksys
router and am able to use the internet on my laptop, but can't seem to set up
the networking.
