Hi

I have two Lap Tops. Sony Vaio with xp and Acer wit vista. Both are
connected to internet via BT Home HUB. Can I access one hard disk from other
computer? I have tried to setup home network through wizard through flash
drive. Vista accepts the wizards but xp generates error code 871122. I have
tried to resolve the problem by reading article 871122 on Microsoft.com under
Microsoft Knowledge Base by following the steps but failed. Could any one
help me?

Thanks

Hi
Successful Sharing involves some general consideration in Network
settings,http://www.ezlan.net/sharing.html
As well as specific adjustment of each computer according to what it is
allowed to be shared.
