I have tried setting up my network so that i can share files, my PC connected to the router picks up my other PC, but how do i find the files that im sharing from the PC that is on the router on the other PC? When i double click my other PCs name on the PC with the router it say i do not have access? Anyone help (that decription is very confusing i know) *Now i have found the network on my other PC, but it says i dont hace the rights to access it, and something about contact administrator. Anyone?
try running the network set up wizard in xp make sure both computers are in the same workgroup and make sure that you have at least one shared folder on each machine you can do this by right mouse click and select sharing Also you must be in a profile that gives you adminstrative privaledges
So computer 1 can see computer 2 but computer 2 cant see computer 1 is that correct ? Both machines are running XP ?
Yeah, computer 1 could see computer 2 and but computer 2 couldnt see computer 1, and now computer 1 cant see computer 2 either that probably because i was messing around so ill sort that out, all i want to know is why cant computer 2 see computer 1, and they are both on XP
click on start then run type cmd hit ok type into the black screen ipconfig /all and post the results back here for each machine
