| Vista Home Premium 32bit | Cannot see other computer in workgroup I have a Netgear wireless network with a desktop computer and a laptop computer. The desktop is the host computer using Windows 2000 Pro, and the laptop is wireless using Windows Vista Home Premium SP2. The laptop can see the desktop and access shared files. The desktop cannot see the laptop. In My Network Places on the desktop computer, only the desktop computer shows in the Workgroup. On the laptop computer both laptop and desktop computers show in the Workgroup. What can I do to be able to see the laptop on the desktop computer so that I can access the shared laptop files on the desktop computer? |
