Hello,

I haven't been able to that stuff successfully very much. BUT try creating a folder called "shared" and right click it. I believe there should be an "ALL ACCESS" choice. If not go to the control panel and somewhere there should be an option to enable file sharing.....

Ive also had this problem.

Its a firewall problem (at least that was the case for me). Either one (or both) of the pcs is firewalled. Check your settings.

If you are using Zone Alarm, this prevents you from accessing files on the network.
