Comment:
I have recently added a wireless router to my XP desktop and cable modem. My Vista laptop has wireless built in. I have no problems connecting to the internet with either. My problem is that when I try to access my desktop with the laptop I'm asked for a password to connect to the C drive. I've tried my laptop login, my desktop login and my router login, but just keep getting login unsuccessful. When trying the other way, I can see the shared laptop folders, and can even access and move files to and from the Public folder, but the other folders I have set for sharing come up with a dialouge box telling me I may not have permission and to contact the server admin. I also can't get my printer to show up on the laptop. Any help anyone can give me will be gratefully received....
