Hi there
Is it just me or does Windows make it extremely hard to network 2 computers?
I just got a new PC (Vista) and I want the Vista to see my old PC (XP). Both
Vista nd XP connect to the internet through an SMC Barricade Wireless Router.
I have an ethernet cable from the Vista and XP connected to the router so
shouldn't that be enough of a connection to see eachother's shared files and
folders?

I'd appreciate some help. Basically, what I am trying to accomplish is view
the XP shared files/folders from my Vista and vice versa.
