Hi, I have 2 notebook (1 using XP and 1 using vista). I used "set up a
wireless network for a home or small office" to network these 2 notebook.
Both notebook already successful connect to wireless router under same
workgroup but under "XP notebook" the vista notebook not appear. On the vista
notebook workgroup map appear XP notebook. Went I try to explore XP notebook
from Vista notebook this message appear "the network path was not found".

Make sure you have NetBIOS over TCP/IP enabled. Also make sure no firewall
blocks sharing.

Hi
Successful Sharing involves some general consideration in Network settings,
http://www.ezlan.net/sharing.html
As well as specific adjustment of each computer according to what it is
allowed to be shared.
Vista File and Printer Sharing-
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/l.../bb727037.aspx
Windows XP File Sharing -
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;304040
Printer Sharing XP -

Windows Native Firewall setting for Sharing XP -
