Hi.
Setup:
1. Windows 7 Home Prem - (PC-A) This is my new machine
2. Windows XP Pro SP2 - (PC-B) This is my old machine which will end up being my server
3. Windows XP Pro SP3 - (PC-C) This is my netbook
All three are connected wirelessly to a Wifi router.
I'm quiet new to windows 7 and have just built my own pc. I'm now trying to share/map two drives on PC-B so I can access it on PC-A. Now I have googled and run through a few tutorials on how to share/map but I cannot get PC-B to share with PC-A. PC-C can access and view all shared folders on PC-B and can see/access the shared files/folders on PC-A so it must be connected some way.
From PC-A - I pinged PC-B and it replied I ran cmd.exe and did net view and could see all three machines but when I try open/map the machine it asks me for a password and refuses to let me in. I have not had this issue with PC-C trying to connect to either PC-A or B.
Any suggestions?
