| | Please Help: Network XP Pro SP2 & Vista HP Computers I have 2 computers networked to a router: A vista home-premium hardlined and an xp SP2 wireless connection. Same Workgroup and they can access eachother via explorer (\\Name of Computer). BUT, I cannot go to network and see the icon for my xp computer in vista, and I cannot click on "View Workgroup Computers" and have the vista computer appear under XP. Read what I've done so far On Vista Computer in Network and Sharing Center: Network Discovery ON File Sharing ON Public folder sharing ON Printer Sharing ON Password OFF Workgroup: Workgroup Firewalls: OFF I can access XP computer from explorer by typing \\xp_computer_name On the XP computer (which is a wireless connected laptop) I ran home networking wizard.
