Networking 3 Computers in Vista

We have 3 computers all using Vista, we are trying to network Quickbooks
through all of them but Vista will not even allow us to access the C drive on
any of the computers. You can see all 3 computers on the network and access
the shared folder only. Is there other secruity options in Vista to be able
to have full access between each computer? Please help

Denise,

In Windows Vista, there is no C$ share by default.
