I recently decided to try upgrading my XP machine to Windows 7, and everything seems to work fine except one thing.
I used to share a partition of my Vista notebooks HD, and I just had to set permission for the XP user on the vista drive and I could access the laptop HD partition without any issues.
Now, with windows 7:
My Vista notebook can' add the Win7 desktop to the list of permissions(it can see the computer when mapping the entire net work).
My Win 7 desktop can't seem to see the network drive either.
I've turned everything "on" as far as advanced sharing center is concerned(Network discovery, printer/file sharing, Public folder sharing)
But I don't seem to be able to add the Vista Partition as a network drive as I used to with XP, can anyone help?
