rico750sxi Posted November 25, 2004 Report Share Posted November 25, 2004 I am trying to get my desktop to share files with my laptop and visa-versa but can't seem to get it to work. They aren't reconizing each other or something. Can anyone give me some help? The Microsoft website isn't very helpful for me at this point. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rico750sxi Posted November 29, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2004 Well, I went to show my wife how she can print documents from the laptop on the desktop's printer and..... it isn't working again. The desktop isn't seeing the laptop and vise-versa AGAIN. I give up!!! Anyone have a good site they can recommend that has a good walkthrough of how to do this. The Microsoft website makes it sound so easy. I need help!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
